I have a pds with 100 member. I have to modify all the member in the pds. I need to replace 'load data'(from 1byte to 9 byte) string to 'LOAD DATA RESUME YES LOG NO NOCOPYPEND" (from 1 byte to 72).

Input
LOAD DATA
INTO TABLE
"XXXXXT".

Output
'LOAD DATA RESUME YES LOG NO NOCOPYPEND
INTO TABLE
"XXXXXT".

doing it with sort might be pretty boring ...
DFSORT deal only with PS and VSAM datasets

to do what You want with dfsort You will have to have a step for each member!

find out from Your support if You have FILEMANAGER or FILEAID
they provide all what is needed for such a task

as an alternative You might try my chgall/masschg script

www.ibmmainframes.com/viewtopic.php?t=60794&highlight=chgall

when doing automated MASS changes, whatever the tool used,
it is a good idea to always backup the dataset before the main event

DFSORT can only handle 1 member at a time. But you can use FILE Manager to perform the update like shown below

Code:

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=FILEMGR                   
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                       
//PDS1     DD DISP=SHR,DSN=Your Input PDS to be updated
//SYSIN    DD *
$$FILEM FCH INPUT=PDS1                                     
C 'LOAD DATA' 'LOAD DATA RESUME YES LOG NO NOCOPYPEND'     
//*
