Vs Kumar is correct. But he forget to mention one thing.
PS files is accessed normally whereas ESDS is access through
the VSAM (Virtual Storage Access Method). VSAM is not a file,
It just a method or process that How to access the file.
Actually, PS and ESDS are same in the functionality wise.
But it is different as the access method used. ESDS will be fast access-able.
Please correct me, if I'm wrong.

How to use the same COBOL program in Batch and CICS on lines? explain with an example
Our issue is there seems to be a disconnect, or no link, between our SELECT statement and our SD. We had SELECT SORT-FILE and SELECT SORT-FILE ASSIGN TO SORTWRK. ASSIGN TO SORTWRK1 SORTWRK2 SORTWRK3 SORTWRK4. with SD SORT_FILE RECORD CONTAINS 7833 CHARACTERS. In either case, at run time, the system ignored our SORTWRK# DD statements and allocated 16 sort works with the SORTWK## naming convention. Any ideas why the system does not recognize the connection? We do not even need the SORTWRK DD statements. Thanks
