use the following,

//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=XXXX(MEMBER),DISP=SHR

//SYSIN DD *

Answer / aloke deb

A new and better way of doing this is by using the IEBEDIT
utility. The syntax is:
//IEBEDITJ JOB ACCT,'',CLASS=P,MSGCLASS=T,MSGLEVEL=
(1,1),NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//STEP0001 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=xxxxx.yyyyy.zzzzz,DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(*,INTRDR)
//SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP10,STEP5,STEP15)
/*
//

Answer / nitesh sethi

IEBEDIT can be used but the syntax needs to be bit modified.
//SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP10,STEP5,STEP15)
/*
//
Instead of this it will be

//SYSIN DD *
EDIT START=IEBEDITJ,TYPE=INCLUDE,
STEPNAME=(STEP10,STEP5,STEP15)
/*
//

condition so it wont execute the step50 it will come out of
the sequence.
