Answer Posted / shankar v

when you know the program name to be called, you go for
STATIC call saying,
CALL 'PROGA'

when you dont know the program upfront while coding the
program you go for DYNAMIC call,
CALL WS_PROG (this is a working storage variable for which
the value will be passed to it during the execution of the
program.

And also a major difference between these 2 is the DYNAM
(FOR DYNAMIC CALL )& NODYNAM (FOR STATIC CALL) option on
the jcl. This is the factor which decides whether a call is
dynamic or static.

I have a cobol db2 program(PGM A) where other program (PGM B) will call this program and passes some 50 fields data to PGM A. PGM A has some layout in which it receives the data from PGM B. And this layout has been copied in the linkage section pf PGM A. After getting the data, PGM A writes the data in a flat file in the same layout which it receives from PGM B. PGM B is a simple COBOL pgm. Please provide a JCL to run these programs.
