?? Are you sure the data you are showing come from the input file of Sort ? ( sorry)

And what happens if you omit the failing part to start with the next field? ( just to see if it is a stop on first error ( so a general problem with that kind of field ) or if it is specific to that field?

if You had searched the forum, You would have found a thread withh the explanation of the error
search argument "WER271A"

You could also have avoided the error by reading the SYNCSORT documentation
about PD length limitations ( and differences from IBM DFSORT )

Ok, I understood.
I solved the problem changing the positions to get just 8 bytes PD, because i don't have so big values.

By the way, where do I find the SYNCSORT documentation ?

Thanks.

At the company You work for,
if they are licensed for the product they are certainly licensed for the docs

If you need a manual a phone call or email from the company's email should do the trick...
Check out this link for more information....
