AI is due to error while opening ims dataset...make sure you have given proper ims files in required DD statements..

The database is a VSAM file. Before using it you have to open and close it. I used to do this with an IDCAMS reproing a dummy.

George DB need not be a VSAM file it can be Sequential also.

I guess DB may not have been initialized.

After creating new IMS Database initialization is required.

Thanks for all.

I havent... specified the VSAM dataset in my JCL,.

One doubt, In my database, only one segment with two search fields , i have to make a call based on this search fields.. is it possible to use '&&' symbol in an SSA,if yes give me an example.

Thanks,
Nagu

For SSA's look at the documentation like here. You might search there too for SSA and learn a lot about it.
