Is it possible to have ENTRY 'DLITCBL' statement in both the main program and the called program? The main program is an online driver program and calls a BMP like this.
CALL 'SUBPGM' USING IO-PCB, ALT-PCB,DB1-PCB.

The SUBPGM has ENTRY 'DLITCBL' and is a BMP and it does not have PROCEDURE DIVISIN USING.

Please guide what entry statement means here in CALLED pgm. Why is there no PROCEDURE division here. I am confused. Please guide.

Thank you
Ajay

Why is there no "PROCEDURE division USING" here ?

Hello,

You need to review additional COBOL material (i.e. the ENTRY statement). . .

Look here:
publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/handheld/Connected/BOOKS/igy3lr50/6.2.12

If you find something in the manual that is not clear, post what you found and your doubt about it. Someone will be able to clarify.

Thanks Dick. The link helps in knowing about the concept behind ENTRY statement.

I will get back regarding the example in question if it is not clear still.

Thank you,
Ajay
