Hi All,

I need to write a step in a JCL which will check if the VSAM file is available for editing. If yes then I need to copy all the data from VSAM file to a flat file. If its not available for editing then I need to set the return code to 8.

Could any one let me know how to do this?

Martin,

If the file is in use REPRO automatically sets the Return code to 8.
