How can we pass data from cobol to JCl?

Answer / sri
When someone ask you that question first thing you need to
do is you post a question to him.
Passing data from COBOL to JCL means where in JCL ?
Do you mean a file? File is also a part of JCL. If it is
file then your answer is WRITE the data into the file.
Do you mean a PDS member ? Then WRITE the data or what ever
into the PDS member.
Do you mean SYSOUT ? If so just DISPLAY the value.
If he says not these three then he need to tell what is the
purpose of moving data to JCL ? for you to give an answer.

Answer / anil prajapati
we can pass data from cobol to jcl by using return-code
like
move 450 to return-code
if we are passing data likeit then at run time the maxx
return code will be this code if move code is a negative
number then after subtracting from 4096 maximum return code
will be displayed

hi.
i need help
i need Passing a variable parm from JCL to a cobol/db2
program
I'm trying to write a batch cobol/db2 pgm wich receive in
linkage section some paremeters
I succeeded to pass a static string of characters but what
I need is variable parameters (INPUT )
//DDB5A59 JOB CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=R,MSGLEVEL=
(1,1),NOTIFY=xxxx
//
REGION=0M
// SET INPUT=MYNAME
<=====
//PH01S01 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,DYNAMNBR=20,COND=
(4,LT)
//SYSTSPRT DD
SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN DD
*
DSN SYSTEM
(DBSN)
RUN PROGRAM(COBPROG) PLAN(NACPLN) -
PARMS('INPUT') -
LIB
('MYDB.TRNSCTN.LOADLIB')
//SYSPRINT DD
SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD
SYSOUT=*
//INFILE DD DSN=MYDB(&INPUT),DISP=SHR
//ERRLST DD
SYSOUT=P,DCB=RECFM=F,FCB=L56
The program (cobprog) is that when I run the job ,if PARMS
('&INPUT') returns :&INPUT and
if PARMS(&INPUT) returns :null
i need "myname" to the cobol/db2 program and name of the
member (DSN=MYDB(&INPUT),DISP=SHR)
Do you think helpe me?
Thanks

Answer / gigish thomas
create a Symbolic Parameter in jcl woith out goiving any
value.In the job step passthis symbolic parameter through
PARM parameter to cobol program.in the linkage section of
the cobol program assign the value/string to the symbolic
variable. It will automatically reflect to the symbolic
variable which was defined in JCL program.
