eibtrmid
we got a pseudo-conversational system. in this system all the queues depend on the eibtrmid. the intention is to get input record(s) from mq and start the system without using the screens. the start or return immediate commands can happen from 1 to n times and is issued from a cobol program. we...

Checking character in String
In COBOL how to check a particular character in a string variable? for example: 01 WS-STRING PIC X(10) VALUE 'GOOD DAYYY' now i want to search 'D' in variable WS-STRING. So how should I do it? Do we have any built in function as in RPGLE we have SCAN and CHECK?

VS COBOL and ADABAS/Natural Mainframe Recent Prospects
Dear Rick: I've been out of the field (driving a truck) since March of 2005. I'm thinking that due to retirements and natural attrition, combined with the fact (please confirm) that companies are not retiring their mainframe systems like everyone thought, what are job prospects for a 48 year old...

Performance Tracking of Stored Procedures
we have a current system where a COBOL stored procedure is called by a .NET application. This COBOL SP then calls multiple COBOL subprograms which perform calculations and update files and then eventually return a value to the .NET app. We have a limitation in tracking the performance of each...

Accessing COBOL storage from a mainprogram into a second under TSO.
I am using Enterprise Cobol with z/OS. Is it possible to access storage from a program running under IKJEFT01(TSO) after it has finished. A second program running under this same TSO session would then be started and I will need to use the results stored in a subprogram called from the first...

Executing a Batch Cobol program which calls a CICS program with "EXEC CICS" commands in it
Given that you synchonize the Communication Area between the Batch and CICS program, can you execute a Batch Program in Batch mode if a called CICS program has commands like the following in it ? EXEC CICS INQUIRE SYSTEM OPSYS(WS-OPSYS) END-EXEC

DDS or SQL
We have an existing COBOL application using files defined in DDS format. We are considering to move from DDS to DDL for future development. What is the best strategy to take this approach?

COBOL data appearing out of order in database
Hi....Would you know what could be the cause of data appearing in an IMS database out of order? Access type is HIDAM, rules=(,H). The segment that is out of sort order is a child, there are 4 occurrences, and it should be sorted by effective date. Here is an example of the database in data...

COBOL I-O-FEEDBACK area
I'm trying to find the breakdown of the I-O-FEEDBACK structure used in COBOL/400, what information is at what offset.
