Answer / muttiah

Overrider you are absolutely wrong!!

Say i have job1 with PROC1 and PROC1 has PROC2. Now I have
DD1 & DD2 in both the Proc's. Let's assume they have in
step1.

In JOB1 if you give

//step1.DD1 DD dsn=<Filename>

This will override ly DD1 in proc1 but not in proc2..

Say if you have same stmt in proc1 then Proc2 can be
overriden.
