Siva,

Please write questions clearly.

I got your question like this.

File-1

1
3
4
7

File-2
2
3
4
7
9

your output should have..

1
2
9.

if I got your question correct here is the answer

for this you have to sort both the files in same order.

Read file-1
Read file-2

Evaluate True
When file1-rec > file2-rec
write out-file from file2-rec
read file-2
when file2-rec > file1-rec
write out-file from file1-rec
read file-1
when file2-rec = file1-rec
read file-1
read file-2
ned-evaluate.

Hi Siva,

It can be done in SORT also but before I can proceed, I need following information -

1. File1 can contain duplicate or not?
2. File2 can contain duplicate or not?
3. File1 can contain all records in File2 + extra record?
4. File2 can contain all records in File1 + extra record?
5. Record length, F/V, field position and length?

A program can not be executed without JCL unless it is an online program. Online program can be executed/restarted by firing transaction ID but at backgrond some jcl must be running.

Regards,
Sandip.
