I have a requirement of copying multiple files which are created dynamically by a REXX code to another PS file.
Example
ABC.XYZ.File1
ABC.XYZ.File2
ABC.XYZ.File3
ABC.XYZ.File4
and so on.
Is there a way or utility to Copy ABC.XYZ.* files (number of input files may vary) to another PS files.
Thank You! |

Hello,
As each file is created in the rexx code, also create "copy jcl" for that file. When the rexx code completes, submit the created jcl to copy the files (this would be one JOB with a separate step for each file to be copied). |

it depends!
if You had been more specific/clear on what You want to do You might have gotten better replies!
like for example...
one to one copy, copy/append/concatenate/sort to a single file, ...
without anything more to work on I would second Dick Sherrer' s motion,
since You are already using rexx to generate the names, expand the script also to create the copy |

Hello,
Only if you have some product installed that supports "wildcards" - you need to ask your local support what is available on your system.
JCL will not support this. . . |

| See ISPF services LMDLIST and LMCOPY. That should be enough to throw this together in about 15-20 lines of Rexx code. |

Hi enrico-sorichetti,
I have multiple files which are created in a REXX code which many vary depending upon the input. Like if input has 1 record 1 output file will be created and so on.
Requirement is to copy all the files
ABC.XYZ.File1
ABC.XYZ.File2
ABC.XYZ.File3
ABC.XYZ.File4
and so on.
to one PS file say ABC.XYZ.FINAL
Thanks for all the suggestions! |
