Replacing a string in Mainframe dataset

mainframe

Can we replace part of data with another string in Mainframe?
e.g. Suppose I have a PS of length 80.
From col 72 to 80 some line numbers are present.
I want to change these line numbers by particular string say TEST.
Can we use any form of "C ALL" to achieve this???

You can do this in the ISPF editor (which is clear from your example) easily: C p‘#’ ‘TEST’ 72-80 will replace any numeric string in columns 72 through 80 with "TEST".
