Hi,

Thanks for the information, But sorry to say as i am doing this first time i didn't uderstand where to give compiler directive options.
My actual code where it is showing error is
DCL 1 WC00_TITLE STATIC, /* TITLE CONTAINS PROGRAM INFO */
5 PROGR CHAR(06) INIT('GIA98E'),
5 DATOR CHAR(06),
%DCL CMP_G CHAR; <<<<<<<<<ERROR>>>>>>
%CMP_G = ''''||COMPILETIME||''''; <<<<ERROR>>>>>
5 DATGN CHAR(18) INIT(CMP_G),
%DEACT CMP_G; <<<<ERROR>>>>>
5 USERCO CHAR(06) INIT('XXXXX');

at these places it is showing as error. Could you please help me which compiler option do i need to user for just to compile the program.

Thanks,
Girish

what about asking Your support ...

they certainly have read the conversion guidelines
and when they have installed the product have also properly customized the compiler options
and provided everybody a how to document for the new environment

but as a general hint the options have not changed that much,
try using the same options You were using for the previous version

%DCL,%DEACT are preprocessor macro statements
looks like the MACRO option was not specified,
but without looking at the compiler listing nobody can tell

poor planning,testing,support
usually any decent support group when installing a new compiler
run some compile test for some real programs for different environments
batch, batch db2/ims , cics, cics db2/ims
in order to verify that everything works and to provide updated docs and...
most important appropriate procedures

You need to give PP(MACRO) as your pre-compile option

Hi,

Thanks when i mentioned MACRO as the Compiler option it went file.
In the current compiler options it was NOMACRO.

Thanks
