i need Passing a variable parm from JCL to a cobol/db2
program
I'm trying to write a batch cobol/db2 pgm wich receive in
linkage section some paremeters
I succeeded to pass a static string of characters but what
I need is variable parameters (INPUT )

// REGION=0M
// SET INPUT=MYNAME <=====
//PH01S01 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,DYNAMNBR=20,COND=(4,LT)
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN DD *
DSN SYSTEM(DBSN)
RUN PROGRAM(COBPROG) PLAN(NACPLN) -
PARMS('INPUT') -
LIB('MYDB.TRNSCTN.LOADLIB')
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//INFILE DD DSN=MYDB(&INPUT),DISP=SHR
//ERRLST DD SYSOUT=P,DCB=RECFM=F,FCB=L56
The program (cobprog) is that when I run the job ,if PARMS
('&INPUT') returns :&INPUT and
if PARMS(&INPUT) returns :null
i need "myname" to the cobol/db2 program and name of the
member (DSN=MYDB(&INPUT),DISP=SHR)
