use the following,
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=XXXX(MEMBER),DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(*,INTRDR)
//SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP43-STEP50)
/*
only steps 43-50 would be included and executed.

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)
/*
//

//jobname job , ,con=(4093,gt,step49)
//step1 exec pgm=
//step2

//step50 exec pgm=.....,
it will execute 49 th step before executing 50 step it will
check the return code of 49th it will satisfies the
condition so it wont execute the step50 it will come out of
the sequence.

How is a new GDG coded?
Please go thru the below points and let me know how to code this. 1. Sort the input dataset for the condition : Starting position is 37,length of the field is 13 based on character and in the ascending order , starting from position 25 length of 12 ,character and in the ascending order. Use a temporary dataset to hold the sorted file. 2. Use the temporary file created in the above step as the input for the next step. The next step is to execute a program and produce an output file. Use the temporary file created in the above as work file 1 and the output of the file to be created in this step work file 2.Also, pass a parameter to the program that is to be executed in this step. The parameter should have the current date in YYYYMMDD format. For the sake of convenience, you can use the below Job Name : Sample1 Input DSN : PCABDT11.CABD.TEST.INPUT Temporary DSN : Sort1 Output DSN : PCABDT11.CABD.TEST.OUTPUT Program Name : SAMPLE Thanks in Advance for your response.
