Answer / ipsita
A record address file contains either key-field limits or
relative record
numbers of records in a DISK file. By providing these
key-field limits or relative record numbers to the program,
a record
address file tells the program the records to read from the
DISK file and
the order in which to read them. A program can use no more
than one
record address file. Record address files must be further
defined on
extension specifications.
A record address file must be an input file. If it contains
key-field
limits, it must use the DISK or CONSOLE device and can be
used only with
indexed files. If it contains relative record numbers, it
must use only
the DISK device and can be used with sequential, direct, or
indexed files.
Record address files that contain relative record numbers
are called
addrout (address output) files, and they are produced by a
sort program

A record-address file is a sequentially organized file used
to select records from another file. Only one file in a
program can be specified as a record-address file.

I have learnt through Net that Debugging a Batch job involves 1. Submit the job with the HOLD (*YES) parameter: SBMJOB HOLD(*YES) or Hold the job queue that before submitting the job by using the HLDJOBQ command. 2. Determine the job name, user, and number of the submitted job by using the WRKSBMJOB command. 3. Type the Start Service Job command on your screen: STRSRVJOB JOB(job name/user/number) 4. Type the Start Debug command on your screen: STRDBG 5. Release the job in the jobq. Type WRKSBMJOB and then put a 6 beside the job to be released and press enter, or, if the job queue was put on hold, release the job queue with the RLSJOBQ command. 6. A display appears when the job is ready to start, saying that you can now begin debugging the job. Press F10 to show the Command Entry display. 7. Now you can start debugging by entering an Add Break Point command: ADDBKP 8.ENDDBG 9.ENDSRVJOB I tried this for RPG/400 Program and up to six steps of the above it's ok,but for me no source is displayed and i typed DSPMODSRC in Command line but still i can't see the sourceif i press F.10 and enter command ADDBKP i don't know how to add break points through it,usually i add break points using F.6 for Interactive job debugs,but since this is batch i don't know sir,Please help me out.
