Hi,
I have a query regarding the read of records in a VSAM file.
Say, I have defined a VSAM file of 100 bytes with key as the first 20
bytes. The structure is -
01 WS-MAIN-RECORD
05 WS-KEY PIC X(20)
05 WS-DATA PIC X(80)
Now when I read the file as below and give in the RIDFLD as the entire
100 bytes, will the read be based on the first 20 bytes only(as this is
the key for the VSAM file) or the entire 100 bytes?
EXEC CICS READ FILE(W-FILE)
INTO(WS-SCRATCH-REC)
LENGTH(LENGTH OF WS-MAIN-RECORD)
RIDFLD(WS-MAIN-RECORD)
UPDATE
RESP(WS30-RESP)
END-EXEC
Regards,
Rashmi
