Hi All,

I need help from you guys.

After receiving data in Main program.I am suppose to call a routine using LINK command to get message and send the Map.

Once i call the routine,it returns me the message in Lower case and i want to convert the message in Upper case before sending the map in Main program.

I have gone through some examples in MVSFORUMS and came to know that changing cases could be accomplish using ASIS option in RECEIVE.But I'm using LINK instead of XCTL,so obviously control executes the next statement and sends the map.

Please advise

Thanks,

Amjad,

Declare as shown below in the working-storage section.

Code:

01  WS-TRANSFORM.                                       
    05    LOWER-CASE    PIC X(26) VALUE                   
                   'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'.       
    05  UPPER-CASE    PIC X(26) VALUE                   
                   'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'.       


And in the procedure division code as follows
Code:

INSPECT TEXT CONVERTING LOWER-CASE TO UPPER-CASE


If you have the Enterprise Cobol or COBOL OS/390 then you can use the intrinsic functions(UPPER-CASE, LOWER-CASE)

Check this link for example of Converting to uppercase or lowercase (UPPER-CASE, LOWER-CASE)


http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IGY3PG10/1.6.6.1?DT=20020923143836

Hope this helps...

cheers

Upper case can also be set in your transaction definition (CEDA), then the problem should not occur.

warp5,

Which of the parameters do we use to set UPPERCASE while defining a transaction through CEDA.

Regards,
Manas

Uppercase translation can be quite confusing because several factors can change it. First, you have your terminal definition where you can set UCTRAN on. Then you have your transaction definition that defines if UCTRAN is on.
You can also have a called program (like we do) that changes the UCTRAN for terminals.
When defining a transaction you also tell it what profile you will be using.
Code:
 
OBJECT CHARACTERISTICS         
 CEDA  View TRANSaction( SY10 )
  TRANSaction    : SY10         
  Group          : BASDVS       
  DEscription    :             
  PROGram        : OSYS100     
  TWasize        : 00000       
  PROFile        : UCTRAN       

This profile controls if UCTRAN is set or not.
OBJECT CHARACTERISTICS                                   
 CEDA  View PROFile( UCTRAN   )                         
  PROFile        : UCTRAN                               
  Group          : SYSTT1                               
  DEscription    : UCTRAN PROFILE                       
  Scrnsize       : Default            Default ! Alternate
  Uctran         : Yes                No ! Yes           

For further information refer to the manuals. Wink
