1)how can i link edit static call and dynamic call?

sudhee_rb,

Check your Linkage Editor options. I think what you are looking for is DYNAM/NODYNAM options. If DYNAM is specified, even the calls in your Cobol program in ?QUOTES? will be dynamic.

hi,

static call is a call which calls the subprogram using the programs name in the calling statement directly. where as it is link edited to the main program during compile time itseld

where as in the case of dynamic call the sub program is called by using variable name which is obtained during runtime of the program
so it get link edited to the main program during runtime only

if it is wrong please correct me
thanks
