Hi all ,
In IMS/DB, what is the command code that I need to use to access not only the lowest level segments specified in the SSA(as we do normally), but to access some segments at the higher level also?


thanx,
Senthil

Hi,

I'm not getting you. Can you clearly explain me what is Higher level.

CALL 'CBLTDLI' USING DLI-FUNCTION,
PCB-MASK,
I-O-AREA,
LEVEL3,
LEVEL1-SSA,
LEVEL2-SSA,
LEVEL3-SSA.

Then the position will be established in lower level(3rd level) segmet, and that segment data is moved to I-O-AREA. Then you can use it by moving it to WS-LEVEL1.

Here if you want to retrive LEVEL2 segment data, you can avoid coding LEVEL3-SSA and code LEVEL2 in place of LEVEL3.

If any thing is wrong, please correct me.

Regards,
Sudhaaa.

Hi,

Use the command code 'D' in the SSA of the segment you want to retrieve.

Ex:

CALL 'CBLTDLI' USING FUNC-GU
PCB-MASK
I/0 AREA
SSA-SEG1
SSA-SEG2
SSA-SEG3
If you want to retrieve the SEG2 also, you should populate D for the SEG2 command code.

Thanks
Sridhar.
