Hi,
I have a requirement where my online program should read a flat file. I know its not possible to access flat files thru online. So, I was thinking to make it a batch program.
But again this process should be initiaed by online Trans Id. Is there any way that I kick-off batch job thru online Transaction?
Thanks
Amith |

Hi,
Thanks for your reply!
Accessing online file in online mode is similar to that of VSAM file (KSDS)?
Thanks
