If we keep the DCLGEN structure for a table in a copybook
and include it in the COBOL program using the COPY
statement, will there be any impact during compilation or
at any stage of program execution?

Answer / ajay ahuja
DCLGENs are processed by Precompiler.
So instead of using COPY "DCLGEN Menber", it is required to
use INCLUDE "DCLGEN member".
This is because INCLUDE copybooks are being expanded during
Precompilation and COPY "Member" will be expanded during
compilation.

Answer / tom
DCLGENs need to be processed by the precompiler. The
precompiler will comment out the SQL and insert the
appropriate COBOL definitions.
If the COPY directive is used, the COBOL compiler will flag
the SQL with syntax errors.
