Suppose i have 2 steps in my pgm. Step1- creates a file,
Step2 - generates report from file in step1, What changes
have to be made in Step2, so that if the file in Step1 is
empty Step2 should not be executed? No changes to be made to
Step1.
Answer Posted / reader
when we are creating the file in step-1 then obviuosly the
file will be empty only..then why we need to check the
condition and skip the step..directly we can put COND=
(4,Lt) parameter and we can skip the step-2...
correct me if im wrong...
