Answer / mr. cooooool

HI...........
PLZZZZZZ USE DIS LOGIC.


PROCEDURE DIVISION.
OPEN INPUT FILE1.
PERFORM READ-PARA UNTIL EOF = 'D'.
DISPLAY COUNT.
CLOSE FILE1.
STOP RUN.
READ-PARA.
READ FILE1
AT END
MOVE 'D' TO EOF
NOT AT END
PERFORM INSPECT-PARA
END-READ.
INSPECT-PARA.
INSPECT NAME TALLYING COUNT FOR ALL 'SHARMA'.

COUNT IS A WORKING-STORAGE VARIABLE WHICH WILL COUNT THE
OCCURENCE OF 'SHARMA'.

THANKS

Answer / abhay

using SORT UTILITY(OUTFIL) AND THROUGH SORT(OUTREC),its
possible..
..
1)THROUGH SORT UTILITY(OUTFIL):

//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//F1 DD DSN=....
.
.
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FILEDS=(1,4,CH,A)
OUTFIL FILE 1 INREC FIELDS=(10,5,CH,EQ,C'SHARMA')
*/
//

2)THROUGH SORT(OUTREC):

//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//DD1 DD DSN=....
//DD2 DD DSN=.... Where o/p contains SHARMA will move into DD2
.
.
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FILEDS=(1,4,CH,A)
OUTREC FIELDS=(10,5,CH,EQ,C'SHARMA')
