Henry,
 
   Can't give you the exact statements, but I've done similar things
with the MPEX LISTF command.  Take a look at the manual under "Defining
your own %LISTF Formats" until you find the "FOR RFILE IN" section, or
look at the  "REPEAT...FORFILES" command.  You will also want to use a
command such as:
        Print fileset(RFILE.LOCKWORD="");Search=CL"searchstring"
 
                        Hope this helps,
