PSB2 keyword

If you want to use a PSB, or a list of PSBs, as Compare Block 2 in a control block comparison, you can code the PSB2 keyword to explicitly specify the PSB(s) to use.

Note that Compare Block 1 is named by the PSB or ACB keyword. If you specify the PSB2 keyword, you must also specify the name of the library that contains the Compare Block 2 PSBs, as explained in the section on the PSBLIB2 keyword.
