4. INCLUDE COND=(STATPOS,LENGTH,TYPE,RO,VALUE) EX: INCLUDE
COND=(1,5,CH,EQ,C'PULLA) ===> To select the paticlular
record. same as above to omit the record replace INCLUDE
with OMIT.
5. INREC FIELDS=(15,5,6,6) ===> to restructure the input

I have a cobol db2 program(PGM A) where other program (PGM B) will call this program and passes some 50 fields data to PGM A. PGM A has some layout in which it receives the data from PGM B. And this layout has been copied in the linkage section pf PGM A. After getting the data, PGM A writes the data in a flat file in the same layout which it receives from PGM B. PGM B is a simple COBOL pgm. Please provide a JCL to run these programs.
