Hi all,

I have one request.

>> we have 1 cics program which takes the input data and writes into a sequential file. At the end of the day. We have batch job which reads the file and inserts the records into DB2 table.

Problem is we are getting database time out error to inserting the data after writing some records.

We need to keep 10 seconds sleep mode once we receive this time out error. How can we do it in COBOL II.

Is there any reserve word like DELAY in CICS?

please help me in this regard.

Thanks & Regards,

Kishore.
