Instream data is the Paratmeter we pass through SYSIN
Catalog Procedure does'nt take Instream data
Example
//NEWPROC PROC
//ABCPGM EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//INDD1 DD DSN=ABC.XYZ.DSP,DISP=SHR
//OUTDD1 DD DSN=PQR.XYZ.NOP,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN DD *
REPRO INDD(INDD1) –
OUTDD(OUTDD1)
/*
It will fail

Instead use

//SYSIN DD DSN=ABC.DFG.PARM,DISP=SHR
/*

Put the following in this data set ABC.DFG.PARM
REPRO INDD(INDD1) –
OUTDD(OUTDD1)

It will run fine

If a field is declared as a comp-3 field and if we want to sort a dataset based on this field, then how will the sort card be??? e.g- if we want to sort by a field which is defined as a PIC X(5) then we will mention - sort fields=(1,5,ch,a). Likewise if a field is defined as PIC S9(10)COMP-3 then in this case how will the sort field be defined (because in this case a sign is also involved)???
