Hi All,

I am using to retrieve the list of dataset using the below rexx command
INPUTDS=XXX.YY.B*
ADDRESS TSO
"ISPEXEC LMDINIT LISTID(IDV) LEVEL("INPUTDS")"
DO FOREVER
ADDRESS TSO "ISPEXEC LMDLIST LISTID("IDV") OPTION(LIST) DATASET(DSVAR)"

IF RC= 0 THEN
SAY DSVAR
EXIT

But while using this we have get addtional qualifer dataset also.So how can we avoid/Omit Addtional qualifer

For example:
XXX.YY.B1
XXX.YY.B1.te1
XXX.YY.B2
XXX.YY.B3
XXX.YY.B4
XXX.YY.B4.te1
XXX.YY.B4.te2
XXX.YY.B1.te1


My requirement is to display,when we given XXX.YY.B* as INPUTDS

the results should be
XXX.YY.B1
XXX.YY.B2
XXX.YY.B3
XXX.YY.B4

how can we achive this.

ISPF will return - as You have seen - all the datasets
which - as the name tells - will match the LEVEL keyword

You will have to discard on your own the unwanted ones

with something like

Code:
ds.1 = "lev1.lev2.lev3"
ds.2 = "lev1.lev2.lev3.lev4"
ds.0 = 2

do d = 1 to ds.0

   parse var ds.d l1 "." l2 "." l3 "." tail

   if tail = "" then ,
      say d left(ds.d,20) "GOOD"
   else
      say d left(ds.d,20) "VERY BAD"
end
