Read COBOL file definition

Post by rajendharreddy »

Hi,

We have an urgent requirement that we have to read a COBOL definition file using server jobs or parallel jobs.

Is it possible to read data using CFF stage. If yes, could anybody please elaborate more on this.

Thanks..

Silly requirement really. What you need to do is to IMPORT the COBOL file definition. What do you plan to do with it once you've read it? And why is it urgent?

We don't do "urgent". DSXchange is an all-volunteer site whose members post as and when they can, and usually only if they have something to contribute. If you need urgent help, sign up with your support provider for premier service, and learn just how much "urgent" costs.

And remember always that lack of planning on your behalf does not mean an emergency on ours.
