Is there a way to check for an empty file in JCL other than
using IEBCOMPR and the command PRINT COUNT(1)?
Answer Posted / nbohr02
You could write a REXX EXEC to read your required files then
have the exec sumbit the job to the internal reader with
either omitted steps or condition step coding. The IEBPTPCH
technique will work too.
