Re: COBOL x ACB EXLST WITH JRNAD
Not to my knowledge. AFAIK the COBOL FCB has been OCO for a long time. The PL/1 Optimizing Compiler Execution Logic manual had good documentation on the equivalent PL/1 structure, but I don't ever remember seeing the COBOL FCB documented. OTOH, lots of programmers have reverse engineered it (or parts of it) anyway. I think that COBANALZ on CBT has some definitions, but FCB has changed over time as well, so it's also compiler-version dependant.

Jose, Sam is correct, COBOL doesn't ave the facilities that I know of unless you call assembler or C . You could try looking through the LE books on COBOL, maybe there is something there...

Thanks in advance, Jose Adauto Ribeiro One problem is COBOL uses an intermediate control block, an FCB that points to the ACB structure. I suppose you could generate the sequence you want in an Assembler program, then hack your way to that using COBOL's pointer and address of facilities. Unless the control blocks reside in storage you don't have access to. And, of course, it would be totally unsupported if anything went wrong went wrong went wrong :-) -- Kind regards, -Steve Comstock The Trainer's Friend, Inc. 303-355-2752 http://www.trainersfriend.com * To get a good Return on your Investment, first make an investment! + Training your people is an excellent investment * Try our tool for calculating your Return On Investment for training dollars at http://www.trainersfriend.com/ROI/roi.html -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
