RE: how to count the records in COBOL data file?...
Hi latha,Please eloberate use quastion in proper way so that every can understand in proper way, I mean, If u want to count a record after each fetch or what(simply u want know record count).77 WS-REC-COUNT PIC S9(8) VALUE ZEROS.READ IN-FILE AT END SET EOF NOT AT END ADD +1 TO WS-REC-COUNT.Perform above on loop or depending on requirement.JCL OLD Disposition overrides Programming file status. And hence All data available will be lost.And hence use DISP=MOD.by opening an empty vsam file in i/o wii get file status 35 how can you over come this ? ----------->> Elaborate ur question and post ur sysout so we can look into it.Thanks & RegardsHemantha Kumar
