Hi All,

I have a COBOL program which fetches the time stamp from SYSIBM table.

There is some perfomance issue because of it.
So I am trying to write a COBOL code to get the time stamp.

Please help me to do the same.

Regards,
Sathish Kumar.

You can try to play with the results of COBOL's ACCEPT DATE/TIME statement.

Hi,

The Date/ Time built in variable is the timestamp . Hope i meant rt for you.

Accept Date /Time in cobol will retrieve the timestamp for you.
