The BPXWDYN function, available in REXX, allows you to concatenate a list of
ddnames.
e.g.
call bpxwdyn "concat ddlist(somedd,dd1,dd2) msg(2)"
would concat dd1 and dd2 to somedd.

All,
(For "allocating" existing datasets) Can someone give an example of a
TSO ALLOCATE command that uses concatenated datasets, where one of the
datasets is NOT cataloged? Is it possible?
It's not possible with ALLOCATE by itself. But you can ALLOCATE an
uncataloged data set by itself to a separate DDNAME and then use
one of the "CONCAT" commands floating around to concatenate them
together (see http://www.cbttape.org).
Example:
ALLOC FI(NOTCAT) DA('dsn.not.catalog') +
SHR REUSE UNIT(SYSALLDA) VOL(vvvvvv)
ALLOC FI(MYDD) DA('cat.dsn.#1' +
'cat.dsn.#2' +
'cat.dsn.#3') SHR REUSE
CONCAT (MYDD,NOTCAT)
OPENFILE MYDD INPUT
