2) if cobol changes are done in cobol-db2 program. what is the compilation procedure.

ie a) whther the precompilation,compilation,appliction bind are required..

anything else we should make in order to successfully run a cobol-db2 program

Hello,

Next time use something meaningful for the subject. . .

Unless these are interview questions (in which case this will be moved to the Interview Questions part of the forum), developers should ask their system and/or database support people for the proper jcl for compiling any program (whether it has db2 or not).

Compile procedures are standard for a system and only the standard procedures should be used. Developers should not create their own.

As these are entirely site-specific, only someone familiar with your environment will know the answers.
