Maruniral,
| Code: |
| i want to use the O/p of the Sort as an input file in the same COBOL code. |
(1) Mode should be I-O.
(2) Use DISP=MOD in the JCL.

Same rule applies here also.
Im assuming you do file maintenance (either explicit or implicit) at the job start. |

Hello,
Your requirement can be solved using "input procedure" and/or "output procedure". These are usually better choices than "using" and "giving" anyway. |
