You need to clarify your question.

BIND is what you do to a program to make it able to run with DB2. It is Not JCL. This is explained in the DB2 materisl "DB2 V9.1 for z/OS Application Programming & SQL Guide" (available via the IBM Manuals link at the top of the page) and "DB2 V9.1 for z/OS SQL Reference" also available at that link.



The PROC statememt marks the beginning or a PROCedure. It is explained in the "z/OS V1R11.0 MVS JCL Reference" manual - also available via that link.
