I have just done the reverse (almost) todat. Use PARSE, on the inrec, to split your data into % variables using space as the 'end before' character then rebuild your record with C',' between each % variable.

1) You can only have one one restart parameter. However, if you are suggesting two job submissions then you still have the problem of stopping the job after executing that one step. 2) What are your CONDs doing? They refer to previous steps.

As a beginner myself I have "COBOL for Dummies" sitting on my desk a good basic intro. It also came with free compilers for COBOL on windoze. It may now be out of print but second-hand copies may be available. I have not searched the web for COBOL tutorials but I know such things exist for C and SQL...

I think you should also forget about "COPYBOOK" - once compiled all the code is in one member per module - all copybook stff is inline. There is nothing special about copybook code except you can include the same code in many modules but only write it once.

i guess what you are wanting is:

Code: Select all

IF LOOK90-CODE = 50
   MOVE value-in-cursor TO record-variable
but this is so basic I wonder if it is what you are wanting?

”LOOK90-CODE ”from the copybook
Wel, I do not understand what you mean here. Presumably in you WORKINGSTORAGE you have a statement like COPY copybook-member? This tells the (pre)compiler to copy the code from the copybook into your source code before it compiles it as one unit.

Are you referring to the output from DISPLAY statements? Are you running this program in foreground or batch? Either way, what have you assigned SYSOUT to?

You appear not to have had too much in the way of response to this and you have not come back to say that it is resolved so I will attempt to clarify the problem and suggest a solution. The problem appears to be that you have, on a Unix platform, a file that was created os a z/OS platform as FBA and...

Also, if the infromation is not within the topic how are people to follow the topic or get an answer when they face the same or similar problem? This is why PMs are discouraged. The whole conversation should stay within the topic.

Why not let DB2 do what it does best - get the data for you? Then let the program that issued the SELECT do what the program does best - manipulate data. Return all 11 indicators and have the program analyse them and create the last bit of your puzzle.
