Hi,

I have a program which updates the transaction file. This program runs on hourly basis. It has another sub program which is called by the main program. Now which is better a static or a dynamic call for this scenario.

There is a link to manuals at the top of the page. Bring up the COBOL Programming Guide and read section 4.1.3.4 Performance considerations of static and dynamic calls.

too bad you are too lazy to google. or search this forum which has only about 2000 threads on the subject.

Look on the right side of the page of this Link for pros and cons of dynamic & static.

you will find from the explanation, that 'it depends'.
