well, you could have searched this forum, there are a few 100 threads similar to yours.

or you could read the manual and learn about 5.0 IEBEDIT (Edit Job Stream) Program

time is your problem not mine. I volunteer this information, for free, on my own time.

Knowing the which manual contains the answer and where to find the answer is the goal.
After all, no one can remember everything, but we can remember how to find answers when shown where to look.

Also, this is not a chat room; so stop using chat room language or abbreviations of you own making.
This is technical forum where complete words and sentences will be used to communicate.

HI Deepu,

Put RESTART commnad in the job card like RESTART=STEP004 and put a null character (// ) after STEP005,so it will start from step4 and end in step5,only 2 steps will execute...

and dont get dishearted abt whatever others say....
these ppl may cant give you answers but can show you attitudes....

Just use labels...

.A and .B before the two steps you need to run and sub .a .b and only those two steps will run..

so no modifications required..

Anuj Dhawan · Post by **Anuj Dhawan** » Thu Sep 29, 2011 3:31 pm

Yeah, that's one of the alternatives.

so no modifications required..

except of course if you need a job card with parms such as
SCHENV=
CLASS=
MSGCLASS=
to avoid the defaults.
