COBOL, Random Update Convert/Update Sequential File to KSDS |
|
| The SimoTime Home Page |
Introduction
This is an example of how a COBOL program can read a record sequential (RSEQ) file and update a VSAM Keyed-Sequential-Data-Set (KSDS) using random processing techniques. Each file contains fixed-length records. The records contained in the output file will be a mirror image of the records contained in the input file. The COBOL source code was generated using SimoTime technologies. Refer to the "Downloads and Links" section of this document for additional information.
In the world of programming there are many ways to solve a problem. This program is provided as a COBOL example of one of the possible solutions to the problem of changing the contents and structure of data files.
We have made a significant effort to ensure the documents and software technologies are correct and accurate. We reserve the right to make changes without notice at any time. The function delivered in this version is based upon the enhancement requests from a specific group of users. The intent is to provide changes as the need arises and in a timeframe that is dependent upon the availability of resources.

EBCDIC, KSDS to Sequential
This program will read a record sequential file and update a VSAM Keyed-Sequential-Data-Set. The encoding schema (i.e. ASCII or EBCDIC) and record format (i.e. 512-byte, fixed-length records with packed and binary data fields) will be the same for both the input and output file.
Note: Since this conversion task is only doing a file-format conversion and the record content is not processed but simply copied then the encoding schema of the records is not a consideration. The records may be EBCDIC, ASCII or BINARY and they will be copied without being changed.
The Process Control File
The following Process Control File (SEQKSD02.pcf) contains the specifications for generating a COBOL program that will do a file format conversion by doing a read of a Record Sequential file and then add a new record or update an existing record in a VSAM, KSDS.

CMD, Generate COBOL Source Code
The following is the content of the (SEQKSDX2.cmd) file that was used to create the COBOL source code. This process uses the SimoZAPS utility program to do the actual program generation.

Company Overview
SimoTime Technologies was founded in 1987 and is a privately owned company. We specialize in the creation and deployment of business applications using new or existing technologies and services. We have a team of individuals that understand the broad range of technologies being used in today's environments. Our customers include small businesses using Internet technologies to corporations using very large mainframe systems.
Quite often, to reach larger markets or provide a higher level of service to existing customers it requires the newer Internet technologies to work in a complementary manner with existing corporate mainframe systems. We specialize in preparing applications and the associated data that are currently residing on a single platform to be distributed across a variety of platforms.
Preparing the application programs will require the transfer of source members that will be compiled and deployed on the target platform. The data will need to be transferred between the systems and may need to be converted and validated at various stages within the process. SimoTime has the technology, services and experience to assist in the application and data management tasks involved with doing business in a multi-system environment.
Whether you want to use the Internet to expand into new market segments or as a delivery vehicle for existing business functions simply give us a call or check the web site at http://www.simotime.com
