I have to extract records from a file using the condition that some date should be less than Current Timestamp.

Can this be done using SYNCSORT?

According to SYNCSORT programmer's Guide:
Code:
INCLUDE COND=(5,8,ZD,LE,&DATE1P)

Here is a list of possible date formats:
&DATE1 C'yyyymmdd'
&DATE1(c) C'yyyycmmcdd'
&DATE1P +yyyymmdd
&DATE2 C'yyyymm'
&DATE2(c) C'yyyycmm'
&DATE2P +yyyymm
&DATE3 C'yyyyddd'
&DATE3(c) C'yyyycddd'
&DATE3P +yyyyddd
&DATE4 C'yyyy-mm-dd-hh.mm.ss'
Y'DATE1' Y'yymmdd'
Y'DATE2' Y'yymm'
Y'DATE3' Y'yyddd'
