I have a input file which contains 48 field, but of different length.
It could be of great help if this 48 fields are written into a single dimension table with 48 as occurs clause.
For example ,
INPUT-FILE
Name pic x(10)
status pic x(1)
Table
Det occurs 2 times pic x(10)
and i want the usage like
Det(1) as name
det(2) as status.
How do i go about this, is this possible?
Please advice. |

Hello,
Please clarify this

You know exactly what you mean, but many of the people here do not.
If use examples it will help.
Does each record have 48 fields? Are they delimited?
If they have different lengths in the same record, how do you know one field from the next?
How does the occurs 48 relate to the occurs 2?
If you more clearly define what you have and what you want to do with it, we will be able to offer suggestions. |
