If you have IBM File Manager you can read the file using FM and give it the copy book as a template.
Otherwise, you will need to perform an IDCAMS PRINT DUMP command and work out the contents from the copy book lay out and the dump format content. //DUMP EXEC PGM=IDCAMS //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //FILEIN DD DISP=SHR,DSN=YOUR.VSAM.FILE //SYSIN DD * PRINT IDS(FILEIN) DUMP /* Might be quicker for you to post the copy book here and a couple of dump format records and we can help you with Decimal field interpretation etc. On Mon, Feb 24, 2014 at 4:23 AM, Ron Thomas <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello.
