Hi All,
I have got a requirement that needs to be implemented thru JCL
File length - 400
We need to extract 2 fields from the file
Field1 = 3 bytes (Starting pos = 35 )
Field2 = 9 Bytes ( Starting pos = 324)
We need to retrive these 2 fields and use these fields in the where clause of a dyanamic query
eg
Select Group-no from CLIENT where PAY-ID = : Field1
AND GROUP-ID = : Field2
Then we need to update the group-no in the file in this position 80 postion (length 15 bytes)
Kindly help me in this regard.
Regarding File extracting 2 fields and using in SQL

You do not have a JCL question, you have a database (DB2) question.
Just because you will [probably] run this in batch it will take more than JCL.
When you write SQL, you mention column names in the query, NOT position in the data.
Topic moved to the DB2 part of the forum.

i have accomplished this type of task by:
read the input file and use the field values as literals in a composed sql statement, that will be the output of the COBOL program or REXX script.
this output file will be used as input to something like dsnutil which would then process the 'file'.

JCL, SQL and code in programs have an irritating habit of doing what you say,
not what you meant.
