Can I compare two datasets as such using REXX? I need to get the output which would be the lines which differ in this comparision.

sure, why not, REXX is a quite sophisticated programming language....
but why reinvent the wheel,
check if ISPF SUPERC/SUPERCE satisfy Your need,

You did not tell what kind of data You are trying to compare...

I am trying to compare two files which will have character type of data. And if I am right, you are asking me to compare the files by issuing SUPERC command in ISPEXEC address. Is it?

I am not asking You to do anything

You asked in the worst possible way and You could have simply gotten a deserved YES You can answer
