Jerin Jose,

The Question does not say that the instream data is passed
thru an Instream Proc. If only Instream proc is used, SYSIN
is not possible and the data can only be passed thru' a
PARM in the step. But, if Cataloged Prod is used, then the
SYSIN can be very much used to pass a Instream data.

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.
