Amar,
The error message tells me your site is way behind on DFSORT service. You need DFSORT PTF UQ95213 to use a 19-byte FS field. That PTF has been available since Dec, 2004, but your site has not installed it. Ask your System Programmer to install DFSORT R14 PTF UK90006 (April, 2006). That will get you all of the latest DFSORT function.

TRAILER3 is a valid parameter. TRAILERS is not a valid parameter. You can't just randomly choose parameter names and expect it to work.

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:
