RE: Program Status Exception Handling

 >> Please let me know how to handle this situation. How do I rollback any
changes that has been made on files when a program exception happens?


I have never tried to use it for this purpose, but in theory you should be
able to use the Register error handler API (sorry I can't recall the name)
to register a program to perform the error response.  That program should be
able to do the rollback for you before issuing the appropriate response.

The only other possibility I can think of would be to convert the CL program
to CLLE and run it in a separate AG so that COBOL did not consider it part
of the run unit.  Depending on the application that may or may not have some
scoping implications - which can be dealt with but  it is a factor to
consider.
