 CONTENT AND OBJECTIVES:
    1. Sequential Files
      • Design two files as master and transaction files.
      • Process the two files for add, update, and delete transactions to produce a new master file.
      • Print a report of all transactions with errors; a transaction can have multiple errors.
    2. Indexed Files - VSAM KSDS
      • Define a KSDS using IDCAMS or an interactive tool such as Compuware File-AID.
      • Code a program that accepts a key-value and locates the record.
      • If the record is not found, an error is to be displayed.
    3. Relative Files - VSAM RRDS
      • Define a RRDS using IDCAMS or an interactive tool such as Compuware File-AID.
      • Code a program that accepts a key-value and locates the record
      • if the record is not found, an error is to be displayed.
    4. Sort/Merge Feature
      • Sort the data in the master and transaction files using INPUT-PROCEDURE and OUTPUT-PROCEDURE.
      • Code a program to ensure that the data is sorted.
      • If the data is not sorted, display an error message and terminate the program.
    5. Maintenance Programming
      • Given a pre-written program, locate the logic errors and repair them.
    6. Object Oriented COBOL
      • Define a class and create an instance.
      • Define a method and invoked it in the code.
    7. Multiple Dimension Tables
      • Define a three-dimensional table.
      • Populate the table from an input file.
    8. Processing Multi-level Tables
      • Traverse the three-level table searching for a value.
      • Delete to blank out the value in an element.
    9. Nested Processing
      • Invoking procedures and passing data.
      • Run-time options and parameters.
      • Variable-length tables.
      • Sequential file updating.
    10. Invoking procedures and passing data
      • Pass data by reference and by value.
    11. Run-time options and parameters
      • Display execution report providing memory statistics.
    12. Variable-length tables
      • Create and traverse a variable-length table.
    13. Sequential file updating
      • Using a master/detail scheme, perform updates on the master.
