Is it possible to call a subfile using CL. IF yes.. kindly help me out with explanation...?..

Answer / rakesh

In CL procedures and programs, message subfiles are the only
type of subfiles supported. To use subfile message support,
run a SNDF or SNDRCVF command using the subfile message
control record. In the DDS, supply SFLPGMQ data and always
have SFLINZ active.

When you use message subfiles in CL procedures and programs,
you must name a procedure or program. You cannot specify an
* for the SFLPGMQ keyword in DDS. When you specify a
procedure or OPM program name, all messages sent to that
procedure's or program's message queue are taken from the
invocation message queue and placed in the message subfile.
All messages associated with the current request are taken
from the CALL message queue and placed in the message subfile.

Message subfiles let a controlling procedure or program
display one or more error messages.
