Explain about LMGET�read a logical record from a data set
Answer Posted / dimpy19
1.The LMGET service reads one logical record from the data set associated with the given data ID.
2.Completion of the LMINIT and LMOPEN services for the data set is required before LMGET is invoked.
3.If the data to be processed is a sequential data set, the first LMGET reads the first logical record. Later invocations read successive logical records
4.If the data is an ISPF library or MVS� partitioned data set, previous completion of the LMMFIND service is required in addition to completion of LMINIT and LMOPEN.
The LMGET service reads from the last member referred to by the LMMFIND service in the data sets being processed. Thus, if LMMFIND is issued referencing member A,
LMGET reads from member A. If another LMMFIND is issued referencing member B, LMGET reads from member B, not member A.

how would you create a temporary dataset? And where will you use them?
1) SORT FIELDS=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) OUTREC FIELDS=(7:20,4,C' FUTURE ',20,2,10,3,1Z,1,9,13,7, 24,57,TRAN=LTOU,6X'FF') This example illustrates how a fixed-length input data set can be sorted and reformatted for output. The SORTIN LRECL is 80 bytes. The reformatted output records are fixed length with a record size of 103 bytes. SOLRF (the IBM-supplied default) is in effect, so unless the SORTOUT LRECL is specified or available, it will automatically be set to the reformatted record length of 103. in the above example i have some doubts that a) sort fields=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) -what exactly it does and this fields related to output record fields or input record fields b)outrec used to refprmat the records after sorting that means could please reply me as soon as possible Thanks.
