Hi All,

There is one question asked to me lets say there is PGMA inserting the rows in to TABLEA and PGMB only reading the rows from TABLEB.

Can it be possible to do this ? If yes will it be possible that inserted rows are retreived by PGMB.

Since you posted in the COBOL forum, the assumption is you are talking about COBOL program tables (as opposed to DB2 tables for example). The answer to your question is that two programs running independently of one another cannot in any way, shape, style, or form have any impact on the memory used by the other -- and this would include tables in memory.
