Re: controlling when jobs start in strsbs

Andy,

After a little more thought...  I don't know if you are running your jobs
from an IBM subsystem or one you created, this should not matter.  Keep the
job that you want to run first in the same subsystem, create another
subsystem and put the other autostart jobs in there.   Do not start that
subsystem within your startup program.   Within the initial autostart job
make the last step a start of the second subsystem.
