Merging files without sorting

U could try the following -
Concatenate the datasets by using IEFBR14 and then in the next step omit duplicates using Omit cond = () of DFsort.

Symbolic Parameters

Why would I want to code symbolic parameters when I could simply override parameters in a proc from a JCl?

Re: condition codes in jcl

Thanks Krishna, I thought as much, but came across confusing contrary explanations in a particular textbook.

Re: Cond codes.

I am confused by the following piece of code that I came across -

//Step1 Exec pgm=pgm1
//step2 Exec pgm=pgm2,cond=(0,LT)

Would it cause the step 2 to be executed only in case pgm1 returns 0, or would it cause step2 to be executed always because negative return codes are never returned?

Thanks
