Suppose, file A has 100 records and file B has 500 records. We
want to write records common to both A and B into file C and
records which are present only in either A or B into another file D.
What should be the logic of Cobol program to achieve this?

Answer Posted / vinod

if f1 = f2
move file1-rec to file3-rec
write file3-rec
if f1 < f2
move file2-rec to file4-rec
write file4-rec.
if f1 > f2
move file1rec to file4-rec
write file4-rec

Our issue is there seems to be a disconnect, or no link, between our SELECT statement and our SD. We had SELECT SORT-FILE and SELECT SORT-FILE ASSIGN TO SORTWRK. ASSIGN TO SORTWRK1 SORTWRK2 SORTWRK3 SORTWRK4. with SD SORT_FILE RECORD CONTAINS 7833 CHARACTERS. In either case, at run time, the system ignored our SORTWRK# DD statements and allocated 16 sort works with the SORTWK## naming convention. Any ideas why the system does not recognize the connection? We do not even need the SORTWRK DD statements. Thanks
