    autoexec.bat

    Sorry to ask the question here, but i just don't know where to ask it. I can't go on the A drive. I am pretty sure that a line is missing in my autoexec.bat file. I can browse my A drive but can't go on it with the commande : cd A:Could do tell me what to add ? Thanks a lot

    Building a string dynamically

    Not at all Slade. I was looking forward to reading your answer. It is the opposite. I like your posts and find them very helpful. I admire the fact that you take time to read and answer the questions. In french , you would say "chapeau". That could be translated as "Hat Off&quot...

    Building a string dynamically

    Hello I may be wrong, but I think that you have to store a space for the sting that should be the size of the largest item of your table. Then you can use " function lenght(your table item) " if you need to play with that lenght. slade will certainly correct me.

    half track blocking

    I don't understand the mechanics behind "half track blocking" strategy. I know that the goal is to efficiently use the space on disk. on a 3390 disk, there are 15 tracks per cylinder. Each track holds 56664 bytes. 1- what is this magical number 27,920 block size ? 2- what is a DASD ...

    Simple Question from a beginner

    Hello What you will have in your output file is: MichaelJor PamelaWall ....any thing that your variable is supposed to represent. CF20S_A_TIN represent data it is not the data. "Y = 2.X" is a linear line equation , it is not the line it self.

    Storage Requirements

    Hello i understand that Pic 9(13)comp-3, Pic S9(14)comp-3 require 7 and 8 bytes of storage respectively. i don't see why Pic S9(12)comp, Pic S9(13)comp and Pic S9(14)comp require 6 bytes of storage. Any hint ? I read Michael Mattias's article, but still i need some light.

    Fixed Length to CSV Using COBOL LE

    Thank you. Crox said it but i missed it :A CSV file is nothing more than that the elements of you record are separated by a comma. How about using a JCL to do that ? OUTREC FIELDS=(field-1,X'4F',field-2,X'4F'.....) ?
