Dynamic allocation in COBOl using BPXWDYN

[Heisenberg]

Hello willy jensen,

I tried the free command alone but it did not work. But with REUSE in allocate then freeing the file worked perfectly.

The final command looks like below.

'ALLOC DD(DDNAME) PATH(/u/USERS/userid/file1.text) PATHOPTS(ORDWR,OCREAT) PATHDISP(KEEP,KEEP) PATHMODE(SIRWXU) FILEDATA(RECORD) REUSE'

'FREE DD(DDNAME)'

@willy jensen, sergeyken, Thank you for your help .
