Summary
This course is designed for those with some knowledge of the COBOL programming language who need to understand the extensions made for IBM's version of ILE COBOL/400. A main focus is Database I/O and the way that COBOL/400 interacts with IBM i DDS (Data Description Specifications) to process externally described database files and internally defined files. Additional Focus is placed on screen display files used for COBOL/400 interactive programming, as it replaces the common CICS programming model.
