hi knd,
sysin and sysout are system defind file names in cobol. if ur program is not containing any files, sysout in cobol contains output to ur program. and sysprint is for to get messages regarding ur program execution. this is same in jcl as well as cobol. sysout carries program output. and sysprint ment for messages generated while program execution. |

The bottom line is that each program uses specific DD's for specific purposes. Depending on the program, it may use one or the other, both, or neither. It is completely based on what the programmer coded his/her program to do. Some languages and certain utilities use specific DDs each and every time; others do not.
Cheers,,,Steve |
