Question

To get a perticular string details from all the members of a file

CLLE, RCVF, DSPFD

Here i am doing get all the member names from the perticular file. for that use dspfd command and pertilular MBRLST and the output instead of displaying saving in a file and reading that file in aloop CL program using RCVF command and overriding the file with the each memberthen call the program in that program reading from overrided file and compare the account number and if its same display the output

Hi,

Some important things are missing into your program.

The dspfd *MBRLIST into an outfile would give you a list of all members. The variable name contaninig the members is "MLNAME" in the outfile.

If I were you, I would rather do it that way:

- Consider that the program called (line 8.00) is the one who will tell you if the account in gound or not. This program should initialize the &FOUND variable to 'N' before doing it's verification.
- Consider to call the actual program with a parameter giving the file name to verify.
- Consider that before compiling that program, you will have to create a file into QTEMP named MBRLIST by doing a DSPFD with and outfile named MBRLIST in QTEMP and compile interractively.

Here we go !

0003.00 DSPFD FILE(YOURLIB/&FILE) TYPE(*MBRLIST) +

Have fun !
