EXPLANATION
Above syntax of SORT sorted the recrods, depends
on keys we have provided
(we have provided two keys in FIELDS parameter)
FIRST KEY
1,3,CH,A - first key started at col 1 , its length is 3
SECOND KEY
9,3,CH,A - second key started at col 9, its length is 3
In the above example,
CH- means character we may use BI for binary
A - Ascending order

- SYNCSORT will take data from 1st positioon to 6th position of input
file and it will compare that data with MOHANK or SURESH or KRISHN
- If data equals to MOHANK then that recorrd will copies to dataset defined
in SORTOF01 step. ( because we defined FILES=01 in second condition )
- If data equals to SURESH then that recorrd will pass to dataset defined
in SORTOF02 step. ( because we defined FILES=02 in second condition )
- If data equals to KRISHN then that recorrd will copied to dataset difned
in SORTOF03 step. ( because we defined FILES=03 in third condition )

1. SORT FIELDS=(1,3,CH,A)
Input file will be sorted depending up on the key specified above
1,3,CH,A - key starting position is 1 and length 3, comparing type
character, sorting is don in ascending order
2. SUM FIELDS=NONE,XSUM
SUM FIELDS=NONE means it will eliminate duplicates
XSUM options will copy all records eliminated in sort
process will copy to another data set defined in
SORTXSUM step

EXPLANATION
1. SORT FIELDS=COPY
It is for copy records to output file
2. INREC FIELDS=(7:2,5,20:10,3) (for formatting)
Here we have two formattings,
1. 7:2,5 - data at 2nd position of input file with length 5
copied to 7th position of output file
2. 20:10,3 - data at 10th position of input file with length 3
copied to 20th position of output file
In above example, we can use OUTREC instread of INREC,
INREC adds, deletes, or reformats fields before the
records are sorted or merged. so that performance will
be improved
OUTREC adds, deletes, or reformats fields after the
records are sorted or merged.
Other parameters we can pass with sort card
SKIPREC=n
causes sort to skip over 'n' records in the input file before
starting a sorting or copying operation.
STOPAFT=n
causes sort to stop after 'n' records in the input file have
been sorted or copied.

COBOL DB2 PROGRAMMING - 1
Writing a COBOL DB2 Program.
Let us assume we are writing a cobol program to
read EMPLOYEE
table and get the details of employee with the name
XXXXXXX.
Let us go in step wise..
create the following table in db2 or assume it is
there in db2 database.
EMPLYEE
EMPID EMPNAME DEPARTMENT SALARY
DESIGNATION
1000 XXXXXXX XX 10000 SE
1001 YYYYYYY YY 9000 SE
1002 ZZZZZZZ ZZ 20000 MA
STEP 1. We need to declare the table structure in
the
WORKING-STORAGE SECTION or LINKAGE
SECTION.
EXEC SQL
DECLARE DSNXXX.EMPLOYEE
( EMPID CHAR(10)
NOT NULL,
EMPNAME CHAR(30)
NOT NULL,
DEPARTMENT CHAR(2)
NOT NULL,
SALARY
DECIMAL(10,2) NOT NULL,
DESIGNATION CHAR(4)
NOT NULL )
END-EXEC.
we can use DB2 tool called DCLGEN to
generate this declaration
for us and can include that copy book
here.
if you create a copybook using DCLGEN. Use
following sntax to include
EXEC SQL
INCLUDE < copybookname >
END-EXEC.
STEP 2. Declare host variables in WORKING-STORAGE
SECTION.
HOST VARIABLES - A host variable is a
data item declared in cobol to use
it in embedded SQL.
For EMPLOYEE table, host variable
declaration is look like as follows...
01 EMPOYEE-RECORD.
05 HV-EMPID PIC X(10).
05 HV-EMPNAME PIC X(30).
05 HV-DEPARTMENT PIC X(2).
05 HV-SALARY PIC
S9(8)V99 COMP-3.
05 HV-DESIGNATION PIC
CHAR(4).
If you use db2 tool DCLGEN, it will
automatically creates this structure also
along with table declaration specified in
step1.
STEP 3. Include SQLCA as follows in WORKING-
STORAGE SECTION.
EXEC SQL
INCLUDE SQLCA
END-EXEC.
What is SQLCA?
SQLCA - SQL communication area.
When a SQL statement executes,
DB2 places a value in SQLCODE AND
SQLSTATE host variables or any
other fields of SQLCA. based on
the values in these variables we
can know whether sql ran
sucessfully or not.
SQLCA contains a declartion of
fields like SQLCODE,SQLSTATE and
SQLERRD etc....
STEP 4. Add a sql statement in procdure division
to get the details of employee
with the name XXXXXXX.
DISPLAY ' PROGRAM STARTED .... '
.........
EXEC SQL
SELECT SALARY
INTO :HV-SALARY
FROM EMPLOYEE
WHERE EMPNAME = 'XXXXXXX'
END-EXEC.
IF SQLCODE = 0
DISPLAY ' SQL EXECUTED SUCESSFULLY '
DISPLAY ' EMPLOYEE SALARY IS '
HV-SALARY
ELSE
DISPLAY ' SQL FAILED '
DIAPLY ' SQL CODE ' SQLCODE
END-IF.
....
....
DISPLAY ' PROGRAM ENDED'.
Here SQLCODE = 0 means, sql ran sucessfully without
any issues. Hence
we are displaying the HV-SALARY into the spool.
If SQLCODE NOT = 0 , there is issue in executing
the sql statement.
Now we have compeleted coding a cobol-db2 program.
our next step is to
compile the program.
