Greg, As you suspected it is the OMIT statement on your OUTFIL which is causing the problem. You can compare in chunks of 256 bytes. So Change the OMIT statement from OUTFIL REMOVECC,OMIT=(1,366,CH,EQ,368,366,CH), TO OUTFIL REMOVECC, OMIT=((1,256,CH,EQ,368,256,CH),AND,(257,110,CH,EQ,624,110

I don't think that you can do this with FTP. You can use Spool Dataset Browse to process SYSLOG datasets (I believe this support is available for SYSLOG datasets created on R11+). There is even some special VSAM GET RPL processing available to support logical SYSLOG datasets and time/record positi

We can submit jobs via FTP, and retrieve the job output. For the purposes of automating some testing, we also need to be able to access the SYSLOG. Is there any way to do that via FTP? I suppose we could use syslogd, but that's a whole 'nother thing to add, maintain, and access; we're hoping th

A static call is fine (I don't even know if C can do dynamic calls, except perhaps using DLLs).  Realize, though, that any time you change the called COBOL routine you'll have to relink (or "re-bind") any program that calls that routine.  This is because, as mentioned, doing a "static call" caus

Historically, COBOL main programs, which CICS could and did make quasi-reentrant, could not call COBOL subprograms in a CICS environment because they were not and coul;d not be made reentrant. That problem has long since been dealt with: COBOL main programs and subprograms can be made reentrant, e

Thanks Frank. I read over your email in detail. It sounds like a static CALL is the way to go. It's a C++ calling our COBOL module. He mentioned an IBM BINDER 'binding' the calling and called modules together. I've never heard that term before. Is it a C++ term? Also, will the AS INITIAL

Thank you for all inputs. The below information given to us by IBM states we are required by CICS to use LINK (or XCTL) and can't use CALL; we pass a COMMAREA and use EXEC CICS commands within our called module. Also, there is no evidence of a performance hit. But since we can't use CALL as
