At which stage of the precompilation , dclgen get expanded

declare table or not?

The copy books are expanded only in the compilation phase
of the application execution. But we would need the details
from DCLGEN in the pre-compilation phase, wherein the DB2
statements in the COBOL application is separated and put in
a DBRM. The equivalent COBOL ‘CALL’ statements are replaced
for the DB2 statements in the COBOL code. Then the
compilation of the COBOL and binding of the DBRM is done,
before being linked and executed.
Hence the INCLUDE statement is used instead of COPY
statement, an adaptation for the pre-compilation stage. The
same reason applies to the usage of INCLUDE in case of
SQLCA inclusion.

SET is the ANSI standard for variable assignment, SELECT is not. SET can only assign one variable at a time, SELECT can make multiple assignments at once. If assigning from a query, SET can only assign a scalar value. If the query returns multiple values/rows then SET will raise an error. SELECT will assign one of the values to the variable and hide the fact that multiple values were returned (so you'd likely never know why something was going wrong elsewhere - have fun troubleshooting that one) When assigning from a query if there is no value returned then SET will assign NULL, where SELECT will not make the assignment at all (so the variable will not be changed from it's previous value) As far as speed differences - there are no direct differences between SET and SELECT. However SELECT's ability to make multiple assignments in one shot does give it a slight speed advantage over SET.
