Btw, what is the proper way to do this?

Can I simply open the files once using a first-time-thru flag, and then never close the files?

Or is it better to come thru one last time to close the files?

This helped - I had done this on one of the called pgms but another was opening the same file every time. This did speed things up dramatically!



Thanks!!

Hi,

One thing to check, if you haven't already, is if you are calling the same OPM Cobol multiple times from your top level program then make sure you are not opening and closing the files on each call. In my experience this can have a big impact.

I have some OPM cobol pgms that are running too slow.

Mainly because they call other OPM cobol pgms I am thinking.

Where can I find out the basics of how to bind these together to create a faster ILE pgm?

Thanks
