Hi all,
I have this huge COBOL-DB2-TELON program that has calls to 'IFULLNUM' and 'ILALPHA'. Are these standard subroutines like say 'CBLTDLI' in IMS.If so what does these two subroutines do?I am a beginner and am not very familiar with DB2 or TELON.Can anyone please help me?

Priya,
IFULLNUM and ILALPHA are Field Edit Formats.
IFULLNUM is used to Edit a numeric field to ensure that all characters are numeric.
ILALPHA is a function used to Left-justifies a character field.
Btw CBLTDLI is not a subroutine but an interface to IMS.When the application program calls IMS in a language-dependent interface, IMS determines the language of the calling program according to the entry name that is specified in the CALL statement. That is, IMS assumes that the program is:
Assembler language when the application program uses CALL ASMTDLI
C language when the application program uses rc=CTDLI
COBOL when the application program uses CALL CBLTDLI
Pascal when the application program uses CALL PASTDLI
PL/I when the application program uses CALL PLITDLI
Hope this helps...
cheers
