Working Storage - Reusability
Hello, here is the question... I want to create a sub-module (cobol DB2) that will be called at initialization time by the load driver (either TP ou Batch). That sub-module will load technical information in its working-storage after accessing DB2 tables. That module will be called...

Migration from OS/390 to Z/OS V1.6 with CSP
We are migrating from OS/390 v2.10 to Z/OS V1.6 as V1.4 is no longer available.We still keep some old application development environment based on CSP/AD and CSP/AE. Is there any issue other than adopting the new LE library that we need to be aware of?
