Hi,
you can get the key value of last record in the vsam file by moving high values to the key field ,then start browse and read the file.
FOR EXAMPLE:
01 EMPREC.
02 EMP-NO PIC X(5).
02 EMP-NAME PIC X(10).
assuming EMP-NO as key and file name as EMP-FILE.
MOVE HIGH-VALUES TO EMP-NO.
START EMP-FILE KEY >= EMP-NO.
READ EMP-FILE.
Please let me know if I am wrong.
Thanks,
Nandakumar |

Nandakumar your are absolutely right in normal COBOL batch environment.
Anand, I am just confused wit your question. You are asking for COBOL code to point the record then what do you mean by "in CICS region". Do you mean an on-line VSAM file? If so, you will have to use STARTBR and READNEXT.
