I want to delete a record from a file in CICS while the region is still up and running. Can you do it with FILE AID and/or CECI?

Nirmal

We cant update the record in a file using file-aid if it is used by CICS region. Another way is to stop the file in the region and use file- Aid or just do it using CECI command

You can make use of Tool Expeditor to get the SOC7 Abbend corrected. S0C7 error is caused due to data exception or bad record because of wrong data in the program. Find out the offset value in joblog. Mapping that offset value to the lines of codes where error occurred. Get it corrected.

Try this:
MOVE USERO TO WS-USER.
MOVE PWDO TO WS-PWD.
AND THEN USE THE SAME SQL QUERIES AS
SELECT USERNAME FROM EMP WHERE USERNAME LIKE '%S'
THEN validate as use the matching and move 'same value of user and pwd ' else move 'different values of user and pwd'
