Size of a column has been changed in DB2 table (Suppose it
was of 5 characters and later changed to 4 characters) and
forgot to change the DCLGEN in COBOL program, what will
happen during the execution of code? If the program Abends
then what will be the error? If it doesn't abend then hpw
the error can be catched?

Answer Posted / srikanth doki

The error will not be catched at that time. Dclgen will not
check the database tables and the dbrm will check the
database if it is not matched then the data exception error
will be raised at that time.
