hi is there any means of deletin a record from a ps usin
cobol
not using jcl?eg if i am reading a record and if some
condition is matched tat particular record must be deletd
fom the ps

Answer Posted / nagesh

Fine I would like go with answer #2, since physical deletion
is not possible with ps datasets , all you can do is exclude
the records meeting the condition while writing it to new ps
datasets.
let me remind once again that Deletion is not possible with
ps data sets.
