Can you code instream data in a PROC ?

Answer Posted / pradeep

Jerin Jose,

The Question does not say that the instream data is passed
thru an Instream Proc. If only Instream proc is used, SYSIN
is not possible and the data can only be passed thru' a
PARM in the step. But, if Cataloged Prod is used, then the
SYSIN can be very much used to pass a Instream data.
