Hi,
I would like to pass parameter like , name of compiling program ,
to REXX batch step.
I need to know how to 'catch' JCL parameters/variables from the previous
step,
in REXX routine.

You can pass parameters to a REXX procedure via the EXEC PARM statement.
The REXX procedure can retrieve the the argument strings with the PARSE ARG
instruction.

Example:
JCL:
file://REXXTEST EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,
// PARM='REXXTEST arg1 ARG2'
file://SYSEXEC DD DSN=execlib,DISP=SHR
file://SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
file://SYSTSIN DD *
/*
REXX:
/* REXX */
parse arg parm1 parm2
say parm1 parm2
Output:
arg1 ARG2
READY
