I can't give you the code, but I can help you writing your own code.

To list all members, you can use:
1. The TSO command LISTDS with the MEMBERS parameter. Trap the output and process it.
2. ISPF service LMMLIST.

When you have a member list, use the ISPF service EDIT or VIEW with the MACRO parameter. Use this edit macro to search your word.

I strongly recommend to start by reading the manuals. There are many examples in the fine manuals.

To learn about ISPF services, please refer to ISPF Services Guide.
To learn about ISPF editor, including Edit-Macro, please refer to ISPF Edit and Edit Macros.

What not use a standard ISRSUPC (Super-C) search of the PDS, if all you want to do is find out what members contain a particular word?

Sometime you need complex searches to be done. Sometimes you need to replace a value in all members etc.
