Hi,
Can you please help me on the following.
Consider the following GDG files.
b.b.b
b.b.b.G0001V00
b.b.b.G0002V00
c.c.c
c.c.c.G0001V00
d.d.d
d.d.d.G001V00
d.d.d.G002V00
I have a input file say aaa.aaa.aaa with above GDG base names.
b.b.b
c.c.c
d.d.d
By using REXX, i need to find out the current generation of each GDG base to an out file.
so output file should have following information.
b.b.b.G0002V00
c.c.c.G0001V00
d.d.d.G002V00
Can you please help me on this?
Thanks in advance. |

do You have a doctors' s prescription to do it using REXX ? 
if You search the forums You will find a few examples doing it with sort
for example
www.ibmmainframes.com/viewtopic.php?t=50967&highlight=sort+last+gdg+generation
a simple search with sort last gdg generation and choosing to search for all terms
if the tool has been already chosen, it means that logically all the pro' s and con' s were taken into account
fitness of the <tool>
availability of the <tool>' s skills
choosing a <tool> and having to resort to somebody else skills to implement the <thing> is usually a bad practice |

anyway it looks like the only thing that these lazy morons want is to be diapered and spoon fed
( not even capable of searching, just good for asking and whining ) |

We did, but you're too stupid and/or lazy to find the complete solution in the other thread that you started for the same requirement. |

You have been here for almost 6 years. You surely know that posting "it didn't work" is a complete waste of everyone's time.
If you want help, you need to show what you have tried and what happened. We will help, but will not typically provide whole solutions. The goal is for you to learn how to do the work, not grab some answer that you could not support and do not understand. |

I guess it is time to lock the topic,
the TS was already given a solution for almost the same issue
I do not see anything good coming out of it ( apart more desparaging comments  ),
no reason to keep beating this dead horse |
