Q1. Suppose COBOL program A calls B, B calls C.
As of now all the program A, B,C are pure COBOL program and it can be execute with PGM=A in JCL.
Now, due to some requirement, Program C will be calling program D, which is a COBOL+DB2 program.
i) What are the procedure to be done in terms of compilation(suppose program used Dynamic calls)

The concept of the interview questions forum is that you the poster tell us what your answers were, and then the rest of the forum will comment.
