Hellow ,

For searching any field values in an array we will use SEARCH ALL and WHEN option.Whether the same clauses can be used for VSAM file search.

If possible then let me know the syntax ?

If not possible please let me know why it can not be possible?

Thanx in Advance.
Naveen.

Hello,

Whether the same clauses can be used for VSAM file search.

No, it cannot.

If not possible please let me know why it can not be possible?

Because SEARCH and SEARCH ALL are used to process a table/array in a program - not a file (vsam or otherwise).

Thanks you so much...

You're welcome
