Hi ,

I am getting a U1035 abend even though the file attributes in defined in the program & JCL are same.

IN PROGRAM
FD REPORT-FILE
LABEL RECORDS ARE STANDARD
DATA RECORD IS REPORT-RECORD.
01 REPORT-RECORD.
05 REPORT-PRINT-LINE.
10 REPORT-CARRIAGE-CONTROL PIC X(01).
10 REPORT-DATA PIC X(131).

IN JCL:
//ORPT01 DD DSN=name,
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
// UNIT=SYSDA,
// SPACE=(TRK,(05,10),RLSE),
// RECFM=FB,
// LRECL=132


Any idea why would I get U1035 return code with these attributes.

deepubonds,
Throw RECORDING MODE IS F into the FD section and see what happens.

[Deepubonds]

I have already tried with these options.

RECORDING MODE IS F
RECORD CONTAINS 132 CHARACTERS

Deepubonds,
Just curious. Why would you want to use carriage Control as a variable rather than use FBA. If you are coding a traditional report try to use FBA. That would help. Thanks

I have created a sample program with your FD entry and a job with a similar DD entry. It generates 10 output records via 10 WRITE statements. Thus far, no problems. Maybe it's a logic problem?

Suresh,
Thanks for your suggestion.

I tried changing FB to FBA, but it didnt work. If I only change the record length to 133 it would work. But, I am trying to understand why even if I have 132 in JCL & the record length in program as 132, why is it giving U1035.

I am guessing whether WRITE with ADVANCING is causing this.

[Deepubonds]

I guess I found the answer :

With ADV in effect, the compiler adds 1 byte to the record length to account for the
printer control character.

Thanks,
Deepubonds

ADV is the COMPILER option, that I am talking about. The compiler had an default ADV option.

When I compiled the program with NOADV compiler option, the program & JCL worked.

Thanks to all for their suggestions.!

You have "solved" this, but now, you need a clear understanding of what you have "learned". The bottom line is that if you want carriage control to work, you do need FBA or FBM as a RECFM. If you have the ADV option set, I think that if you look at the file attributes when the file is created, i.e. when you add the byte to allow it to be created, that the RECFM will show up as being FBA.

You may in fact be able to leave the DCB information completely off of the JCL. Give that a try and see. I am not positive that will work for an output defined as going to SYSOUT, but it should for an output going to a file since the program has defined the LRECL, the RECFM, and the system should be able to determine the BLKSIZE.

The bottom line is that I would encourage you to play around with this a little more. That should give you a clearer understanding of how it works.

Deepbounds,

Glad that you found the solution. Check this link which explains in detail about ADV( look for the posts by me)
