Hi,
Do anyone know if we can use a copybook in easytrieve? I have 1000 fields and to declare all the fields is a pain. I have a cobol copybbok written for that, but not sure if i can use it here?
Can anyone help me out?
thanks

Variable declaration in Easytreive and COBOL is different. You cannot use COBOL copybook in the Easytreive program. |

Hi,
I am aware that variable declaration is diffeferent in easytrieve. But i heard there is a way using which we can convert cobol copybbok into easytrieve declaration. I saw it in one of the discussions in this forum as well, but could not understand it exactly.
Thanks

Both EZTPLUS and COBOL definitions are included to provide a common set of names for both programming languages.
EZTPLUS definitions are identified as debugging lines in COBOL programs and are treated as comments so long as "DEBUGGING MODE" is not specified in the "SOURCE COMPUTER" paragraph.
COBOL definitions are treated as comments in EZTPLUS programs.
To use in EZTPLUS programs, code:
%name
To use in COBOL programs, code:
COPY name.
As said, you can not use a COBOL copybook in EZT, but you can create a record description that can be common to both. |

Sorry raj, I missed read your message.
IBM has some migration utility (extra cost) for z/os that will convert
EZTP layouts to Cobol copybooks. I have not used the product but know it is called EZTCNVRT. Run a search on GOOGLE for CBLCNVRT and look for the "Microsoft PowerPoint - Updated IBM zSeries TeleClinic - May07.04" |

Hello,
Please notice that this topic now contains 2 different requests.
One to go from COBOL to ezt and the other to go from ezt to COBOL.
When raj_gdg posted the second question, it probably should have started a new topic. We'll see how this goes and split the 2 questions if it gets too confusing. . . |
