Hi,

Can someone post me the purpose of sysprint, syslist DD names as shown below, in a Fileaid batch job?

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=FILEAID
//STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=xxx.load
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSLIST DD SYSOUT=*
//DD01 DD DSN=input.dataset,DISP=SHR
//DD01O DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
**control statements**
/*

I am currently having a file which can only be viewed with a copybook. I need to extract contents at a particular position from this file.

Is it possible for me to first browse the file with the copybook and then extract the characters at the required position?

Please let me know if this can be done using Fileaid Batch.

SYSPRINT lists all submitted control cards, and all error and completion messages issued during execution. If SYSPRINT is not provided, File-AID dynamically allocates it.

SYSLIST is an optional statement to use when selecting data for hardcopy output. If SYSLIST is not provided, File-AID dynamically allocates it. SYSLIST may optionally be defined as a sequential file.

you can do that, try to generate a jcl in batch using PRINT option of the file-aid. Some time, i've even posted a working model of such a JCL, you might to search the forum.
