I've got a file with COMP-3 (PD) values in it. I am creating a report extracting values from this report using DFSORT and ICETOOL. Is there away I can conver the PD values into ZD? |

That helped in another sort card I had, but this is still open.
The issue is the file looks like this
I mean some charecters, numbers, packed numbers. I want my report to have data like
-> that is the packed data converted to readable format. |

You can do this in several ways with DFSORT's INREC, OUTREC or OUTFIL statement. See the following for more information:
www.ibm.com/servers/storage/support/software/sort/mvs/beyond_sorting/online/srtmboft.html#ocv
www.ibm.com/servers/storage/support/software/sort/mvs/beyond_sorting/online/srtmboft.html#oed
For example, you could use DFSORT control statements something like this:
| Code: |
OPTION COPY
OUTREC FIELDS=(1,6,10:7,3,17:10,4,PD,TO=ZD,LENGTH=4)
|
If you're not familiar with DFSORT and DFSORT's ICETOOL, I'd suggest reading through "z/OS DFSORT: Getting Started". It's an excellent tutorial, with lots of examples, that will show you how to use DFSORT, DFSORT's ICETOOL and DFSORT Symbols. You can access it online, along with all of the other DFSORT books, from:
