In addition to the link that Kolusu has provided, if this is a one time job, then I would simply use the ISPF SAVE command....
Get into DSLIST with fnode.snode.*.c and put a "SAVE MODAK" on the command line. The complete list of datasets will be saved into userid.modak.datasets.
I have ISPF release 5.2 on my installation and this works here. I am not sure if this works in old releases of ISPF.

Regards,
Manas

You may want to check out the catalog search interface. See the Rexx sample in samplib, member IGGCSIRX.

modak,

The link provided above is a rexx routine which can be run in batch if you have the rexx complier.

Hope this helps...
