Hi,

Would you please tell why the DSNEXIT is used along with DSNLOAD when executing a DB2-COBOL program?

Is there any significance of having these two libraries in particular order? Any adversaries?
(Ex.: Can I have DSNLOAD followed by DSNEXIT)

TIA.

ranga_subham,

DSNEXIT must precede DSNLOAD. DSNLOAD contains the standard settings for the DB2 load libraries. DSNEXIT contains customized settings for DB2, such as the decimal separator that is expected by DB2.

kolusu, thx for the answer - saved me looking it up, i assume, in one of the db2 admin guides for implementation and installation.
