Hi,

i have a KSDS file, whoes key length is 20 and data part is 236. it is usually updated from members or from a VB ps file. Usually we manually entered the values that needs to be updated in KSDS by entering it in the member and by running a job it gets updated in the KSDS file. I need to update the same through batch pgm. How can this be done?

one option that i thought was to write it into a PS file and using IEBGENER append a member with my key and data.

Please let me know what can be done?

Regards,
Nimi

Hello,

Please clarify your request.

Is it not a batch process now? This

sounds like a batch process.

Please post a sample of what data you have in both the vsam file and the "transaction" file (only a few keys and not the entire 236 bytes of data are needed) and what you want the result to be.

When we better understand what you want to do, we will be able to offer suggestions on how to do it.
