Hi All,

Can we pass Dynamic values to ICETOOL step through something like PARM?

I have to use different sort conditions based on the PARM...

Thanks in advance.

You can pass dynamic values through DFSORT Symbols.

Code:

//SYMNAMES DD *
sym1,5,9,CH
con1,'constant1'
/*


The SYMNAMES data set can also be a sequential data set or a member (RECFM=FB, LRECL=80).

You can then use those symbols in DFSORT and ICETOOL control statements, e.g.

Code:

   INCLUDE COND=(sym1,EQ,con1)


For complete details on DFSORT Symbols, see:

If you need more specific help, please provide more details of what you're trying to do as Kolusu requested.
