Sticky: File-Status-Values for IBM VS COBOL II
Posted: Tue Dec 02, 2008 11:13 pm
Hi,
If the FILE STATUS clause is specified in the FILE-CONTROL entry, a value is placed in the specified status key (the 2-character data item named in the FILE STATUS clause) during execution of any request on that file; the value indicates the status of that request. The value is placed in the status key before execution of any EXCEPTION/ERROR declarative or INVALID KEY/AT END phrase associated with the request.
