Hi, Forum,

While revolving around this knowledge wheel for some thing. I have seen that, when a a plain cobol program calls a cobol-db2 program, this plain program needs to be compiled as a cobol-db2 program.I doubt, is it just enough copiling it as a cobol-db2 program? or needs to bind it to package or plan?. If it looks like a basic question, please forgive me as I am a kid in working with db2 applications..


Thanks in advance..

Hi-
Here is an Example. PROG1 is the calling COBOL PGM and PROG2 is the sub-module.

Code the bind as follows:

*****************************
BIND PLAN(PROG1) -
MEMBER(PROG2) -
ACTION(REPLACE) -
RETAIN -
VALIDATE(BIND) -
ISOLATION(CS)
*****************************

Here is the input to the IKJEFT1B utility that will run the programs:

//SYSTSIN DD *
DSN SYSTEM(DB2D)
RUN PROGRAM(PROG1) PLAN(PROG1)
END
//*
