Answer Posted / y@$w@nth
We can go for concatenation of datasets approach for this
to do
//userid01 job .....
//stp1 exec pgm=sort
//sortin dd dsn=userid01.test.input1,disp=shr
// dd dsn=userid01.test.input2,disp=shr
//sortout dd dsn=userid01.test.input,disp=shr
//sysout dd sysout=*
//sysin dd *
sort fields=copy
/*
//
In the above case the statement
sortin dd dsn=userid01.test.input1,disp=shr
// dd dsn=userid01.test.input2,disp=shr
means concatenation of two datasets as one.....
Let me know if i am wrong
