Hi Guyz,
My requirement is to empty out a PS file but not to delete.
How would I do that. Is there any Utility. If any other
way, plz answer. Thanks.

Answer Posted / pushpa

Yes we can do it by using the IEBGENER utility.

I have a question here By using the IEBGENER Utility I was
able to do this only for PS with RECFM =VB , but its not
working for PS with RECFM = FBA.

Is there any specific reason for this.

Please Clarify.
