1.Suppose my file has 10 fields and I want to make the 2nd
field Zeros in all records. And assume I have millions of
records and I dont want to read each record and update the
desired field with 0. Any other way to do this in one step
operation?
2. Assume my file has 100 records and I want to see only
first 10 records. Is this possible through LF?
3.I have 3 jobs A B and C. I want to submit B after
successful completion of A and want to submit C after
successful completion of B. Without using job scheduler or
job queue, how can i do that through CL program?
4.What is difference between Bind by copy and bind by reference?

Answer Posted / ganesh.kandaswamy

Just thought of answering the 3rd question. Basic logic is to make sure the job A is completed before we submit B and similarly on B to submit job C.

Following are the approaches to make sure a job is completed :

1. Allocate a data area before the job gets submitted and check for lock. Once the job is over deallocate and proceed to next job B to submit
2. Using QUSLJOB API

Q:Hi all,i want accurate answer with code using in built functions.please sent me code as soon as posible. I have program nmed PGM1 which '' RETRIEVE Current production date''should correctly default the production date for the user who is issuing raw materials to the manufacturing.The production date can be different from the celendra date. However, the program does not make the correct adjustment for all manufacturing plants. there is a parameter which determines the production start time e.g. 07:00 if the system time precedes this,the program subtracts one from the celendra day.This work fine when the celendar day starts after production day as it does in England,the system should be adding one to the celendar day during the overlap. unfortunately the program was desined to assumed the celendar day always starts before the production day. Change required in the program: Change the PROGRAM PGM1 to use the new parrameter to decide whether to add or subtract 1 from the celendar day when determining the production date.
