| "Organization is Line Sequential" or "Organization is Sequential". Are they both same and what is the default file structure in Mainframe if we do nt mention any Organization? |

Maybe because You didn' t look well,
I just checked the link and found that,
if You had scrolled, or clicked the links at the bottom of the page,
You would have found that...
line sequential files are "unix like" files,
no concept of record, just a continuous stream of chars
they can be allocated only on HFS volumes... path and all that |

As for your default question from the same publib.boulder:
| Quote: |
Specifying a file organization and access mode
In the FILE-CONTROL paragraph, you need to define the physical structure of a file and its access mode:
FILE-CONTROL.
SELECT file ASSIGN TO FileSystemID-Filename
ORGANIZATION IS org ACCESS MODE IS access.
For org, you can choose SEQUENTIAL (the default), LINE SEQUENTIAL, INDEXED, or RELATIVE.
For access, you can choose SEQUENTIAL (the default), RANDOM, or DYNAMIC.
Sequential and line-sequential files must be accessed sequentially, but for indexed or relative files, all three access modes are possible.
|
Next time please try to explore a bit after a link has been offered  |

This definition is used for unix or windows platforms. it enables you to process textfiles (like those produced by notepad) in your COBOL program. Each record is delimied by a CR/LF and trailing spaces are eliminated.
This format (as far as i know) is not supported by IBM Cobol compilers (not even the AIX version). |
