email from a DC region

[Gary Cherlet]

I know that this has been previously discussed on the IDMSL.

I would welcome input regarding a process to send email from an IDMS DC region within a DC Cobol program.

One possibility that comes to mind is to submit a batch job via the internal reader.

You could do it using an ADSO dialog as well.

Here is a sample of something I used sometime ago

Here is a link to a previous thread on the IUA/EIUA Message Board which addressed this very issue "click" here to go directly to thread with code example and sysgen requirements to do what is asked !

In this thread the distinction was made between submitting a batch job to submit an e-mail - and sending an e-mail directly from IDMS-DC. There are a couple of solutions offered which involve sending the e-mail directly thereby bypassing the intermediate batch job processing.

There is some sample ADS code - easily converted to Cobol - and the required Sysgen statements and IDMS region startup JCL requirements to implement a "e-mail directly from IDMS" solution.

HTH - cheers - Gary Cherlet

Thank You to those who responded to my query regarding email sent from within a DC region.

I received some invaluable information and 2 actual programs.

I will study this further and match to yet to be received requirements.
