i have a PF,it contains 5 members,how to access particular
member data from logical file ?and what is the use of member
in PF

Answer Posted / syam

A1. Reading member 5 of myfilepf
CRTLF FILE(KCS/MYFILELF) SRCFILE(KCS/KC1) DTAMBRS
((KCS/MYFILEPF (MBR5)))
Or
ADDLFM FILE(KCS/MYFILELF) MBR(MYFILEBR) DTAMBRS
((KCS/MYFILEPF (MBR5)))

A2.For accounting purpose each month data can be stored as
12 different members.
So that we can easily access one month data or 12 months
together.
Easy to maintain 12 members in one PF file instead of 12 PF
Files.
