There is a excel sheet having details of Old account number
and new account number. I need to update these details in
my AS400 files. i.e. all the records having old account
number should be replaced with new account number. There
can be 100 or 200 or 300 PFs...no fix files known.

how can we do this?Solution should be performance oriented

Answer Posted / smita

We can convert the excel sheet into file by command
CPYTOIMPF. Read this file and write programs to update 100 -
200 files for given updation of old account number. But
this solution will not provide gud performance. Is there
any other solution?
