Hello manikumar_711 and welcome to the forums,

To do this you use a "load utility" or write code to insert the records.

If you talk with your peers or with your dba, they can tell you the proper way to do this on your system and they can provide the standard jcl to use on your system.

If you look in the forum, you will find some examples, but you should use what is standard for your system if you intend to actually run a load.

Hi,

If you are a COBOl programmer it's very easy , just Read from an Input File and Insert using dynamic SQL in your database table.

Else you can use an LOAD utility as well.

//DSNUPROC.SYSIN DD *
LOAD DATA INDDN(SYSREC) RESUME YES
INTO TABLE userid.tablename(
fieldname POSITION (1) datatype(datasize)
.................................................................
.................................................................
)
/*
//DSNUPROC.SYSREC DD DSN=<Input dataset name>,DISP=SHR

Hi,
you can use FILD option 3.7.2 to load record from sequential file to DB2 database.
