Sorry for you, but it's not possible.
I tried with the common variable, but one job have just one process, and we can't send variable through processes, it doesn't work in the same job control too !
You have just one solution, you can writte your variable in a temporary text file and read it with the next job !

Good luck!

simplest way wether it by as an output stage or in the control program code -- write the 'variables' or params to a hashed file. then in the next job, you can read that information in the hased file and reference it.
there are also features called COMMON variables that can store these values once read in.

give it a whirl.

good luck

write the information to a hashed file for external reference. its the best way. if it is a group of variables, then you can write them to a table or hashed file and then reference them in the next job.

Also, once read in, there is the use4 of the COMMON statement that will allow you to store the variable throughout the processing of that particular job


good luck

ps: email me directly and i'll see what i can do to help with the code.
