Convert COBOL input to different format.
Posted: Mon Oct 03, 2016 2:46 pm
Hi.
We get a file from a different sever (which I'm not sure if it is windows or some other mainframe) but it's copied to our mainframe as a sequential file as a VB file. LRECL is 300.
We need to process this file through a COBOL program. The COBOL program can process the FB file. I want to convert the VB to fixed length file.
To do that, I used IEBGENER but it did not wor out and I got the error "Conflicting DCB Parameters". Can a sort function do this?
