PROBLEM SCENARIO

A file is to be created from data entered at the keyboard. The file (to be called STUDENT FILE) will contain student records (STUDENT RECORD). Refer to Record Structure and Process Requirements below for details.

NOTE

The file name in the program will be called STUDENT-FILE.

The file name as saved in permanent memory ( N drive, memory stick etc.) will be called STUFILE.DAT or STUFILE.TXT

The record name in the program will be called STUDENT-RECORD.

For the field names, use the names noted in the Record Structure below following proper COBOL coding rules. Abbreviations are acceptable as long as they are meaningful (refer to the Standards document in Blackboard.)

Record Structure (STUDENT-RECORD)

Each record will contain the following fields (attributes) in this order.

Student Name 20 bytes alphameric

Student Number 9 bytes alphameric

Course Number 7 bytes alphameric

Program ID 7 bytes alphameric

Process Requirements

Once a record has been entered at the keyboard it is to be written to an external file. Please note, as this file is to be a stored data file for other processing, there should be no spacing or any form of editing. The output record will follow exactly the same structure and sequence as that for the input described above.

Each time through the loop, the program should prompt whether another record is to be entered and if so, prompt for each of the 4 fields to be entered. Please note the prompt whether a record is to be entered should be executed in the Initiation and Mainline routines.

Refer to Screen Layout Requirements below for prescribed screen layout for prompts and data entry positions. Refer to Test Data below for the records to be entered. You must use the test data provided in the Test Data below.

To view or print the created file, use NOTEPAD, or WORDPAD and retrieve the file.
