Thanks for telling it like a programmer sees it.' D.J., Programmer, Syracuse, New York. Part 2 of DB2 for the COBOL Programmer, 2nd Edition, takes up where Part 1 leaves off, teaching the reader all of the advanced features they need to know to become a senior programmer or programmer/analyst in their shop. This updated edition of Part 2 will cover version 4.1 and 5 enhancements, so that readers can take advantage of all the features that will help them most in their shop. It shows the reader how to; use dynamic SQL so their programs can generate and execute SQL statements as they run, to use stored procedures that move SQL code off of the client and onto the database server to reduce network overhead, how to work with shared and distributed DB2 data, and to process DB2 data in CICS programs, the concepts and practices of DB2 database administration that allow users to set up a quality assurance environment Emphasis is placed by the author on the practical rather than the theoretical, programming rather than data base administration, and on COBOL programs rather than ad hoc processing, making DB2 for the COBOL Programmer, 2nd Edition, essential reading for programmers who wish to use SQL through COBOL. |
