Answer / vinay kumar gupta

you can not use CL program to ADD or UPDATE records in database files.
Use Printer or ICF files.
Use Program described files.
Use the concept of subfile (to display more than one record), but a single output message subfile is a special type ofsubfile that is supported well in CL.
Use subroutines.
You cannot declare more than one object (file) in a CL programme.
