Answer / dev
u can not directly convert a flat file to vsam file because
vasam file have something called key filed which u need to
specify and it should be in some order asc/dsc or we can
say sorted on key filed and then we can copy the flat file
to vsam file

different, so we cant copy the entire characteristics, but
i think we can copy the contents i.e datas using idcams
