This course will present task-based, real-world scenarios covering the design, coding, and implementation of one type of COBOL application that is commonly required by businesses with large files. The first application accepts input from two files, the Customer Contact file and the Warranty file. The data is checked for the latest contact information and a master contact log file is generated. The second application merges the master contact file with the old contact log file to create a new master contact log file. This course is based on ANSI X3.23-1974 and ANSI X3.23-1985 COBOL standards. It is a prerequisite to COBOL: Interactive Applications. This course is designed for individuals with some prior programming experience who require an introduction to, or to be reacquainted with, the fundamentals of the COBOL programming language.
