Answer / y@$w@nth
I. I think ur asking how to read 100th record????
here is the syntax
a. MOVE 100 to rec-key
READ in-file KEY IS rec-key
END-READ.
In the above we followed random reading from a VSAM(KSDS) File
b.For sequential file if u need to read 100Th record then we
need to write a perform statement that will run 100 times
then read statement will execute 100 times then after
termination of perform statement we will have 100th record.
II.If ur asking about u need to read 100 records and store
them in a place go and read the all 100 records and store
each record in a table(array).
Let me know if any other...
