Issue/Introduction

Need to define a member of a PDS as a trigger data set in the SASSXDSN SRC member, macro $L2XDSN.  Is this possible with SASSXDSN? 

Environment

CA 7  12.1   12.0

Resolution

SASSXDSN can not be set up to define a member from a PDS file as a trigger dataset.  The best practices is to use sequential files.  We do not recommend using PDS files with SASSXDSN.
