How to define the same kind of elements in a map using occurs clause.
Normally occurs will create fields in horizontal way. is there any way to create fields by just defining once and will be repeated in vertical way |

We can't create Vertical fileds by using occurs caluse in BMS Map.
If you want all fields in one column to be in a array structure
to access from cobol program. do following.
1. define the fields in BMS map with same name
2. after creating the symbolic map. modify symbolic map
to define array on these fields using REDEFINES clause.
3. now , you can use these arrays to refer the fields in BMS which are defined with
same name. |

Look at Repeated fields: the OCCURS option...

Assuming standard 3270 BMS, make the field length total 80 bytes (79+1)...

I'm not sure just what you are expecting, how about a little more detail and an example? |

Hi tripathi
Using Screen Definition Facility II (SDF II) you can easily define fields in vertical fashion for Maps.
