While compiling the program there won't be any error because of this problem.

Hi Gangaraju,

Could you tell me the purpose behind this question? Just Curious..

Because the answer lies in your question.

DDnames you specify in Program and JCL should match.

If you get error at compile, then You verify the number of occurence.

Thanks,
Mani

hi there,

there wont be any error in compilation unless there are two same dd names in the cobol program. And wy should compilation give error?

It will compile perfectly. But when you try to run then there an erorr will occur.
