Precompilor-:

Precompilor's main purpose is to check the syntactical error of COBOL programes which contains embeded SQL statements.It first compiles & then differentiates cobol & DB2 statements.It sends all the DB2 queries to DBRM(database request module) and in that cobol program control makes those query lines as comment lines & issues CALL statement & that moves to MSC(modified sourse code).
