| Suppose I want to create a new dataset with some information passed into it (at the time of creating data set I want to pass the values in it). Can we do this thru JCL? |

A utility perhaps, IEBGENER to create a dataset and populate with instream data ?
REXX to define and populate the data
SORT could do it too |

To receive useful answers from the forum, you need to provide enough info for us to work with.
Unless i misunderstand, almost every dataset is populated with some data when it is created. There are some exceptions, but most often, data is "passed into it" when a dataset is created.
Please post an example of what you need as output (and where it is coming from) and we can make suggestions on how you might accomplish what you need. . . |

You resist, keep doing it,
but once in a while You get fed up with people asking to do something thru jcl...
and there are a bit too many
and give a technically correct answer without any further investigation |
