Answer / praveen bejjanki
Some info regarding Temporary dataset:
1) They start with '&&'
2) They can be a maximum of 8char's, The first character
should be a Alphabet or National character remaining char's
can be numeric also.
3) These dataset's will usually have the disp parm
as 'Pass' Which indicates that the dataset is passed to the
subsequent steps in the jcl. But at the end of the jcl the
dataset will be deleted.
So, It's impossible to view the data in Temporary dataset.
@All: Correct me if i'm wrong.

- No, you can not see data in temporary data set.
- Because temporary data sets are created during jobs
execution and terminated after completion of the job.
- It is used to release the space utilized by the data set
after termination of the job.
