THE BELOW INFORMATION ALSO IS USEFUL FOR THE DECLERATION.
Fixed Block File
• Use ORGANISATION IS SEQUENTIAL. Use RECORDING MODE
IS F, BLOCK CONTAINS 0.
Fixed Unblocked
• Use ORGANISATION IS SEQUENTIAL. Use RECORDING
MODE IS F, do not use BLOCK CONTAINS
Variable Block File
• Use ORGANISATION IS SEQUENTIAL. Use RECORDING MODE
IS V, BLOCK CONTAINS 0. Do not code the 4 bytes for record
length in FD i.e. JCL REC length will be max REC length
in PGM + 4
Variable Unblocked
• Use ORGANISATION IS SEQUENTIAL. Use RECORDING MODE
IS V, do not use BLOCK CONTAINS. Do not code 4 bytes for
record length in FD i.e. JCL REC length will be max REC
length in PGM + 4.
ESDS VSAM file
• Use ORGANISATION IS SEQUENTIAL.
KSDS VSAM file
• Use ORGANISATION IS INDEXED, RECORD KEY IS,
ALTERNATE RECORD KEY IS
RRDS File
• Use ORGANISATION IS RELATIVE, RELATIVE KEY IS
Printer File
• Use ORGANISATION IS SEQUENTIAL. Use RECORDING MODE
IS F, BLOCK CONTAINS 0. (Use RECFM=FBA in JCL DCB).

Add File-control para in environment division with select
clause for input and output file.Declare there organization
and access mode.
then in data division add file descriptor entry for each
file.These must be in file section.
Then use these files in procedure division.
