Hi,

Is there a way to sum a particular column for a whole file irrespective of the control field using sort utility.

For Ex:

file a

0001 100
0002 200
0002 300
0003 100

Result expected is the sum of the 2nd column i.e 700

Regards
Veer

Here's a DFSORT job that will do what you asked for. I used ZD,LENGTH=5 to get a 5-digit total, but you can change that as appropriate depending on what you want the output to look like.

Code:

//S1    EXEC  PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT    DD  SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
0001 100
0002 200
0002 300
0003 100
/*
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD    *
  OPTION COPY
  OUTFIL REMOVECC,NODETAIL,
    TRAILER1=(TOT=(6,3,ZD,TO=ZD,LENGTH=5))
/*
