This was related to -811 sqlcode, In a COBOL DB2 program which accesses employee table and selects rows for employee 'A', it should perform a paragraph s001-x if employee 'A' is present. In this case it gets -811 sqlcode, but still it process the paragraph s001-x. What could be wrong in my code.

Hi, Please clear me when COND=ONLY and COND=EVEN. Explain me with example.

GJ,

My Question is 1. How to cound no. of records in JCL. Please explain with an example. 2. How to execute only odd steps in JCL? I know EDIT TYPE = Inculde, Step Name = 1,3,5 and COND code for all even step. Anyone knows other than this.

1) SORT FIELDS=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) OUTREC FIELDS=(7:20,4,C' FUTURE ',20,2,10,3,1Z,1,9,13,7, 24,57,TRAN=LTOU,6X'FF') This example illustrates how a fixed-length input data set can be sorted and reformatted for output. The SORTIN LRECL is 80 bytes. The reformatted output records are fixed length with a record size of 103 bytes. SOLRF (the IBM-supplied default) is in effect, so unless the SORTOUT LRECL is specified or available, it will automatically be set to the reformatted record length of 103. in the above example i have some doubts that a) sort fields=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) -what exactly it does and this fields related to output record fields or input record fields b)outrec used to refprmat the records after sorting that means could please reply me as soon as possible Thanks.
