Hi,

I need to create an header with current time of execution. My output header should be of the following form:
Code:
 _________________________________________                             AAAAAAAAA
 |  Total All Brokers        12.38.39    |                             AAAAAAAAB
 |_______________________________________|                             AAAAAAAAC
where 12.38.39 is the time of job execution, and is in the form HH.MM.SS. Please help me in writing this SYNCSORT.

Thanks,
Surendra.

Have you looked at the DFSort manual and noticed that "current time" is available in headers?
TIME
specifies that the current time is to appear in the report record in the form 'hh:mm:ss', where hh represents the hour (00-23), mm represents the minutes (00-59), and ss represents the seconds (00-59).
Since I cannot access a Syncsort book, this is from their PDF:
Quote:
&TIME
The &TIME subparameter specifies the current time of day and
requires 8 bytes to display hh:mm:ss, where hh is in 24-hour format.
