Hello sashidhar,

In the post there is no restriction that we should not use SQL statements, so I assumed that we can use SQL statements in the program.

Read the file and move the date to the vairable DATE-FROM-INP-FILE and execute the below SQL code in your COBOL program.



Post if you have any questions.
