Write a program in the language of your choice to read the sequential data set (the only files on a mainframe are in Unix System Services or on tape) and generate a job using the data set names you want; submit this job into the internal reader. You CANNOT modify the JCL of the executing job once it has gone through the converter / interpreter -- so what you want CANNOT be done with a single job.
