Hi,

For a task in hand I need to collect files which follow a particular naming convention like ATD.DATA.FILE.N*. But before I'd like to know that how many files are actually present which follow this convention. Is there a way ti know this, please advise.

Thanks for your help.

a good old plain ispf 3.4 list or an or a IDCAMS listcat will tell approximately how many there are
vsam cluster names data might appear three times ( the cluster, the index, the data )
