Figured it out... Please delete this thread. Thanks.

This is your stock Master File update program. I read in an Activity File and randomly look for its match based on an index (Product Number). The second I step through the line: READ MASTER-FILE End-Read. The FILE STATUS CODE goes to 39. Ideally I'll get 00 right? What does this mean and...

You're right!! This fixed the problem. I moved spaces to the line before the moves. Then I added a couple more moves to get formatting back in there, like slashes. Thanks so much!! Nick

Please elaborate... Do you mean I should have something like this for each line: DATADUMP-LINE. 05 CC1 PIC X. 05 FILLER PIC XXX. 05 REC-NUM-OUT PIC 999. etc. Thanks, Nick

The actual mainframe was shutdown last week for good. The last update came circa 1970. We're now using MFE for all programs. Unfortunately, the instructor knows less about MFE than I do. It is an anomily within MFE because my friend is experiencing the same problem writing the same...

Its will only be used in Mainframe Express. Output will just be viewed in the SPOOL and printed. (Taking a class). Thanks, Nick

There are several different options for COBOL dialect to use in Mainframe Express. Which one would you recommend? Here are my options... COBOL for MVS COBOL/370 release 1 VS COBOL II release 4.0 OS/VS COBOL DOS/VS COBOL COBOL for OS/390 Thanks, Nick

If anyone cares, you can download screenshots of what I see on screen of my output. The first page is when I right click and go to print preview. The second page is when I double click the output. http://bluetrane.digitalrice.com/problem.doc Thanks, iTrane

I'm not at my computer to test your suggestions right now but I can explain a little. The VALIDATE program must produce a Valid Report which is then used again in a DFSORT program (another issue). If I had a choice I wouldn't use the IEBGENER stuff, but it is a requirement in my problem...

razalas, I've tried that too. I commented my code out and added the SYSOUT=A. Everything came out perfect. Hmmmmm. iTrane

Unfortunately, this didn't fix it. Personally, I think its the way MFE is interpretting the JCL and formatting the output. I have a couple screen shots of the differences between the two. Thanks.

My current project validates transactions and outputs a valid report and an error report. My JCL is setup to output the Error Report right to printer (DD SYSOUT=A) while I'm required to use an IEBGENER to print out the Valid Report. The problem occurs with actually viewing the files in the...

Is this resolved yet. I have just installed WINS on my server and I still cannot browse. Is there some sort of special configuration of the WINS I need to do? BTW, WINS can see my connections. Thanks, iTrane
