Im working in a support project..I used to encounter SB37 & SE37.. SB37: When ever you get this abend. Try to increase the primary and secondary space as per the number of records in input file.. One...

SD37 - no secondary allocation was specified.
SB37 - end of vol. and no further volumes specified.
SE37 - Max. of 16 extents already allocated.
All indicate dataset out of space.

Here is the answer for your question "cobol IDENTIFICATION DIVISION. PROGRAM-ID. RECCNT. ENVIRONMENT DIVISION. INPUT-OUTPUT SECTION. FILE-CONTROL. SELECT IN-FILE1 ASSIGN TO DD1...

Truncation happens from left to right.

Its Just like a type conversion If we are having a field in database as alphanumeric and we want to superate the $ symbol and superate the numeric value for calculation as follows ...

we can pass values from COBOL to jcl is only through Files
through return-code we can pass only return code through COBOL to jcl

synt:- Move 16 to Return-code and this can be access in jcl through cond parameter of the jcl step.

The above 2 ways are to send data from JCL to COBOL not from COBOL to JCL

open file in reverse

i.e OPEN input file-name Reverse

Hi guys

input file
======

a
n
d

to get outupt
==========

d
n
a


if you use the desc sort, output will be display as z to a

if you insert the sequence no on file, than sort to get reverse order.

syntax is

OUTREC = (1, 5, SEQNUM, 5, ZD)

sequence no will be stored in 6 to 10

Using IEBEDIT utility to run a particular step with out use of COND Parameter

In job-card place "Restart=step100,cond=(0,LE)"

when we are doing any manipulations on files like sorting,merging,copying....etc with a file using a utility or pgm in a catalog proc we use EXEC

Code
//PROCNAME PROC
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//DDNAM DD DSN=XXX.YYY.ZZZ......
//               ........................
//

While you want execute a program inside a procedure we can use

          Exec Pgm=N1233
