File Aid View

Postby Naveen@Uppi » Wed Apr 22, 2009 6:13 pm

Hi all,

Throught the File aid for MVS (FAM) and then 8 (View) i can view the the deatils of the copy book like fieds, field number, starting position, ending position, and lenght.

Is there by any means i can directly FTP all the deatils (field, field number, starting position, ending position, and lenght) it to the excel sheet.

Thanks and regards,
Naven N

I can't remember much about File Aid, but in File Manager you can create a template dataset that can be saved that gives you the details you require. Not sure about FileAid, perhaps you can have a look to see if there is some sort of Template facility that does the same thing.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Hi,

Did you try to "generate" JCL using "PRINT" option of Fileaid? And then FTP the output from that JCL?

Anju... sorry, I can't remember, it's been a while since I used Fileaid. We have FileManager for z/OS (by IBM) where I work and that creates a dataset with the details in...........but that's not much help to you !!! Sorry..

Hello,

If you use this jcl
//FILEAIDP EXEC PGM=FILEAID,REGION=6M                         
//STEPLIB  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=fileaid.loadlib         
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                                       
//SYSLIST  DD SYSOUT=*                                       
//DD01     DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your.copylib.pds                   
//SYSIN    DD *                                               
$$DD01 RLPRINT MEMBER=(copybook)                                 
you should get the info you want. . .

If not, please clarify.
Hope this helps,
d.sch.
