4.0 out of 5 stars it's one of those books that does "exactly what it says on t, 3 Nov 2003
By Mr. M. C. Gaylard (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A slender tome.

But it's one of those books that does "exactly what it says on the tin".

This book is not out to teach you COBOL, you must have that as a given. It will tell you all you need to know about VSAM though.

I bought this book to use as a refresher after a few years away from VSAM and it was worth its weight in gold and then some.

4.0 out of 5 stars A truly useful primer for the beginning VSAM programmer., 24 Aug 1998
By A Customer
This book has proven its worth many times in a training program administered by my staff. All aspects of VSAM processing have been clearly laid out with excellent examples of each concept being used in a COBOL program. Since COBOL is still the reigning king of business programming, this book still retains a useful place in any mainframe programmer's library and is an excellent primer for the beginning programmer.
