No, because once the JCL has been resolved by the JES interpreter you can not change anything.
You could use the job that processes the file to submit another job though. |

Actually the problem description is as follows:
we have a job running for different countries in which we are paasing the country value through a symbolic parameter. But now what we want is to take the country value from some other input DSN and then pass it to the symbolic parameter.
Is this possible? |

| Yes, again as expat already stated, you'll need to read that symbolic parameter from the dataset and then build and submit a new job in order to use it. |

| Did you understand what Expat has suggested. If not, re-read his suggestion then read what Kevin has told and if still not sure RTFM and tell us what did you try at your end so far? |

Will go for REXX to build and submit a job. |
