Hi guys,

Could you please help me out........

The incoming/input file contains the date in format 'yyddd'.

patypaz,

Huh? INCLUDE doesn't do conversions, that syntax isn't correct for INCLUDE or INREC, and even if the syntax was correct it wouldn't do a conversion.

The link posted by superk shows how to do the conversion.

If you're going to post supposed "solutions", please test them before posting.

With z/OS DFSORT V1R5 PTF UK51706 or z/OS DFSORT V1R10 PTF UK51707 (Nov, 2009), DFSORT now has built-in date conversion functions for these types of situations . For complete details on date conversion functions and the other new functions available with the Nov, 2009 DFSORT PTF, see:
