hi,

Preeth. Y u wan to plit your JCL(input) into 1o output files.

I guess..your requirement is to split a inputfile in a jcl into 10 output files based on some conditions.

Yes..u can do soo by using ICEMAN, SORT etc..

All you need is to specify as:

SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL FNAMES=File1,INCLUDE=(1,2,CH,EQ,C'01')<== include a condition
OUTFIL FNAMES=File2,INCLUDE=(1,2,CH,EQ,C'02')<== include a condition
..
OUTFIL FNAMES=File10,INCLUDE=(1,2,CH,EQ,C'10')<= include a condition

File1 DD DSN=YOUR.FILE1.DSN,DISP=(NEW,CATLOG,DELETE)
File2 DD DSN=YOUR.FILE2.DSN,DISP=(NEW,CATLOG,DELETE)
..
File10 DD DSN=YOUR.FILE10.DSN,DISP=(NEW,CATLOG,DELETE)

Clear??
