Access given segments only.

[Suman S]

Hi,

FOr example assume that in an IMS DB I have 5 segments. SEG1 is the route, SEG2,SEG3 and SEG4 are the direct dependents of SEG1. SEG2 has a child SEG5. Now I want to access only SEG1, SEG2, SEG3, AND SEG4 without retrieving SEG5? How whould I do it, Please help.

The easiest way out is -- use a PCB without SEG5. As your Programs' PSB does not know about the SEG5 - you can not retrieve it and you get what you want.

Thanks for the suggestion Anuj, this has worked.
