Hello again,
I've been running the RPG examples from Jay Moseley's website (?and been successful, sorta, until example 3.? It reads a card file to create an ISAM file but I thought it would invoke VSAMIO and process the RPG program to work with a VSAM file instead of ISAM.? According to what I've read on his site is should work with COBOL, Assembler, and PL/1 as well.? However, it seems to be on MVS systems only.? Can anyone confirm?
I don't remember how to create or process ISAM, it's been way too long!??I downloaded and ran the samples from??without problem and thought I'd play around with Jay's RPG example programs.?
BTW, example 2 runs ok except it goes into a loop at EOJ.? I replaced the tape output with SYSLST and it runs fine. I've no idea what's going on.
