Introduction
(Next) (Previous) (Table-of-Contents)

This suite of sample programs describes how to use COBOL to load a table with customer information and then sort the table using a bubble sort routine. The elements in the table will be sorted in postal code sequence.

The source code for the CMD file, the JCL member and the COBOL programs is provided and may be modified to fit your environment. The COBOL program will run on an IBM Mainframe System or in a Micro Focus environment on WIndows.

Sample Routines
(Next) (Previous) (Table-of-Contents)

The intent of this section is to provide a summary of the sub-routines by function and a quick link to the sub-routines within the main program.

Sample Routines, Load the Table
(Next) (Previous) (Table-of-Contents)

This sub-routine will read a record sequential file of eighty-byte records and load each record into an element of an in-memory table. The table contains one-hundred (100) elements.

Click on this link to view the code in the program that does the Load the Table. This will be displayed in a separate window.

Sample Routines, Sort Table By Postal Code
(Next) (Previous) (Table-of-Contents)

Once the table is loaded it will be sorted based on the postal code value.

Click on this link to view the code in the program that does the Sort Table By Postal Code. This will be displayed in a separate window.

Sample Routines, Sequentially Retreive the Elements in the Table
(Next) (Previous) (Table-of-Contents)

Next, the table will be processed sequentially to produce a file of mailing labels in postal code sequence.

Click on this link to view the code in the program that does the Create Mailing Labels From Table. This will be displayed in a separate window.

JCL for Execution with ZOS Mainframe

rem  * When running with Net Express the IBMCOMP an NOTRUNC directives
rem  * will be required to maintain compatability with the mainframe

The following chart provides a list of the sample COBOL programs that do table processing.

HTML Tag Description
binbit01 This suite of sample programs describes how to use COBOL to create a table or text string of binary values from X'00' through X'FF'.
cblbin01 This suite of programs provides an example of how a COBOL program does various table functions such as a table load, a standard COBOL "SEARCH", a standard COBOL "SEARCH ALL", a user written binary search and a user written linear search.
cbltbl01 This suite of sample programs describes how to use COBOL to load a table with customer information and then sort the table using a bubble sort routine. The elements in the table will be sorted in postal code sequence.
stamlr01 The program has the ability to print 1,2, 3 or 4 across labels. This example uses a two-dimensional array to build the label-printing output.

The hexadecimal dump of the parameter-buffer uses the same technique as describe in another SimoTime example that describes the dumping of a data string using COBOL. The name of the member that does the actual hexadecimal dump is called SimoDUMP. A copy file (PASSDUMP.CPY) is provided for defining the pass area.

The SimoZAPS Utility Program has the capability of generating a COBOL program that will do the conversion of sequential and VSAM (KSDS) files between EBCDIC and ASCII. SimoZAPS can also read a sequential file in EBCDIC format and create an ASCII/CRLF file or VSAM KSDS file in ASCII format. The conversion tables may be viewed or modified to meet unique requirements. The Hexcess/2 function provides the capability of viewing, finding or patching the contents of a file in hexadecimal.

This item will provide a link to  an ASCII or EBCDIC translation table. A column for decimal, hexadecimal and binary is also included.
