Answer / muttaiah
Jeetendra,
I'm not sure what you are going to say..But, it's possible
to code a proc(procedure) within a proc(procedure).
I mean proc can also be referred as procedure...vice-
versa.EX:
//job1 job Operands/Parameters
//Proclib JCLLIB order=(
proc1.library,
proc2.library,
proc3.library)
//Jstep1 exec pgm=
//step3 exec Proc=Proc1 or //step3 exec proc1
//Proc1 Proc
//pc1step1 exec pgm=
//pc1step2 exec proc2
//proc1 pend
//proc2 proc
//pc2step1 exec pgm=
Remember in proc1 i have not coded JCLLIB since job,
jcllib, joblib are not allowed here.
proc2 will be pulled from the library mentioned in the job.

Answer / jeetendra kumar patel
No, We can not write procedure widin a procedure. Istead of it we have to call a control card.
Actually control card is the member of PDS or PS file. SO if there is any need of something like procedure widin procedure we have to call the control card.
