I have PS flat file with 14 records. I want to read from
4th to 9th record and want to write those 6 records (4th
record to 9th record) to another PS file (output file).
there is no key defined in the input file. I just want read
a certain Consecutive records. can any one please give me
the procedure division Coding for this. I have coded the
below coding but the READ-PARA is performing only 1 time
even though I have 14 records in my input file (i.e FILE-1):
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
A000-SECTION.
MOVE 0 TO I.
OPEN INPUT FILE-1.
IF CHECK-KEY1 > 0
DISPLAY "OPEN ERROR FOR FILE-1, CODE IS:" CHECK-KEY1
END-IF.
OPEN EXTEND NEWFILE-1
IF CHECK-KEY3 > 0
DISPLAY "OPEN ERROR FOR NEWFILE-1 COD IS" CHECK-KEY3
END-IF.
PERFORM READ-PARA THRU EXIT-PARA UNTIL EOF-REC = 'YES'.
DISPLAY " FINALLY OUT OF LOOP"
CLOSE FILE-1
CLOSE NEWFILE-1
STOP RUN.
READ-PARA.
ADD 1 TO I
READ FILE-1
AT END MOVE 'YES' TO EOF-REC
IF I > 3 AND < 10
PERFORM WRITE-PARA
ELSE
DISPLAY "NOT IN RANGE"
END-IF.
EXIT-PARA.
EXIT.
WRITE-PARA.
WRITE NEW-REC FROM FILE1-REC.

Hi ,
You don't need a oobol Program itself for this instead you
could use IDCAMS PROGRAM and REPRO Coomand with the control
parameters like SKIP and COUNT to achieve the above task.
//J1 JOB NOTFIFY=TCHN003
//S1 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//F1 DD DSN=FILE1,DISP=SHR ---> INP FILE
//F2 DD DSN=FILE2,DISP=SHR ---> OUT FILE
//SYSIN DD *
REPRO INFILE(F1) OUTFILE(F2) -
SKIP(3) -
COUNT(6)
/*
