    sub select / case or another method problem

    Thanks! I hope you can help. xy AND zy ARE COLUMNS IN TABLE ST. THEY REFERENCE OTHER ROWS IN THE TABLE (A SORT OF FOREIGN KEY?) WHERE xy/xz can = aa. SOMETIMES XY/XZ are NULL. I have to get ab(other row) when ay(1st row) = aa(other row) There are two tables; ST and SX both provide columns in...

    sub select / case or another method problem

    Problem: Table ST with column aa, ab, ac, etc. has column ay pointing to another row in table ST where aa = xy. az also matches to aa in different row in ST. (sometimes xy and az are filled and sometimes not). The result table has to show: a.aa, a.ab, a.ac, b.xx (c.ab(xy = aa) or ' ')...

    xpediter failure

    You guys are basically correct - thanks - the systems programmer decided to update the sytem to cobol complier 3.3.0 and "somehow it got changed xpeditor" to 3.3.1 - of course, he never notified anyone that he was altering the environment.

    VSAM ERROR CODE 44

    I fixed it and my guess about a duplicate key was correct, (but lucky). This file had three different indices - prinmary and two secondary keys, all defined as unique. I managed to establish a test environment (many DB2 tables and VSAM files). I then ran under expeditor and put a stop in the...

    VSAM ERROR CODE 44

    thanks for asking... and helping... 3. Because I am guessing and the 44 makes no sense for other reasons. 1. It is a program that has worked without change for a long time... 2. SELECT ACCOUNT-OUTPUT-FILE ASSIGN TO ACCTOUT ORGANIZATION INDEXED...

    VSAM ERROR CODE 44

    While not exactly a COBOL question, problem is occuring in a COBOL program... According to everywhere I search, a code 44 means a VSAM rewrite where the length was changed or a write of a record that isn't within the specified file sizes, (too short/too long). However, the problem is occuring...

    Dynamic length file declaration in COBOL in VS Cobol II

    I don't know if this is still supoported but we used to define files as format "U", (undefined), in jcl. you used to be able to bypass dcb processing. (i come from a world where we had 4k machines. we had to write our own iocs, (input output control system), and do necessary label...

    Converting alphanumeric field to numeric

    Amazing how we complicate the simple. If it's numeric, it will past a numeric test and can be refined as numeric and used that way. If it contains alpha characters - it ain't numeric, was created inproperly as the result of poor design or poor data entry controls, so attempts to treat it as...
