Hi,

This is simple...

Just create File.Layout for ur template.

Type FILE.LAYOUT in jsh prompt such that it creates the files with a suffix for the fields in the template.

Any msgs ..plsssss

Hi Subrata,



Follow these steps and check if everything is right.



1) Compile TEMPLATE.L after modifying for your application(xxx)

2) Create PGM.FILE with type 'L' for the file (xxx)



Now, try FILE.LAYOUT from shell prompt.

--> It will ask the program name, give the same name as the application . Type xxx

-->It will ask whether program - > type 'P' for program

-->It will ask for file structure name --type I_F.XXX

-->Give the prefix and suffix as you please

--> Move the file from folder BP to local BP



Hope this serves your purpose, otherwise, mail me

Hi ,

why u havnt given any file name ? try it by giving the file name and prefix.

for example

Enter output Name - = I_F.Entryname : I_F.PR.H.USR.TRANS.LIST

Enter PREFIX or = NONE :PR

still if you have the same problem then check the file definition for your template.
