Hi,
I am trying to update a record of a PS file, and in the previous posting of the same kind, they have suggested to use PUTX macro and GET macro in locate mode.
If i am trying to update empname based on empid, how do i rewrite the record in the same file.
Looking forward for some pointers. Thank you. |

You can use GET and PUTX macros. To use PUTX, code MACRF=(GL,PL) on the DCB macro.
You didnt do that, so you didnt read the Updating in Place part of the manual. |

I have changed MACRF=(GL,PL), no errors though, but nothing is getting updated in the file.
I read the updating in place, but they have used read and write. My mistake,that i didnt change MACRF to (GL,PL) in my earlier post.
Thank you. |

Hello,
Do NOT multi-post the same question.
As mentioned in your other topic, it is bad design to overwrite records in a sequential file. Even if you find a way, it should NOT be used. |
