SuperCE utility (option 3.13)

The SuperCE utility (option 3.13) is a dialog that uses the SuperC program to compare data sets of unlimited size and record length at the file, line, word, or byte level. It is appropriate if you need more flexibility than the standard SuperC utility (option 3.12) provides.

Note: For an introduction to the SuperC and SuperCE utilities (options 3.12 and 3.13), see SuperC reference.

The panel shown in Figure 1 is the first panel of the SuperCE utility. It requires only the names of the input data sets, which are entered using standard TSO naming conventions, such as:

New DS Name  . . . . 'USERID.TEST2.SCRIPT'

Note: In this context, a new data set is an updated version of a previously created data set, such as a data set in your private library that has not yet been promoted.
