sivafdms,

You can use SRCHFOR 'string' command from 3.4 listing.

Check this link which explains in detail about the command

Hope this helps...

Cheers

Hi Koulsu,

Thanks for your help!

Can this be done by JCL using any of the sort utility?

Thanks,
Siva

By JCL I presume you mean 'in batch'. Use the SRCHFOR utility from the main ISPF menu (option 14 or 15?). There there is a batch option. Use that to find a trivial example and then copy the generated JCL and modify to your particular need.
