Babu,
Use DFSORT technique. Search DFSORT forum for INREC/OUTREC examples. |

Babu,
Here's an example of how you would do that with DFSORT. I've assumed you only want the second and fifth columns of data in the output record.
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
ABCD EFG HI JKLM OPQRS
TUVW XYZ AB CDEF GHIJK
/*
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC BUILD=(6,3,X,18,5)
/*
|
SORTOUT would have:
| Code: |
EFG OPQRS
XYZ GHIJK
|
Of course, the exact DFSORT control statements you'd use depends on exactly what you want to do. If you need more specific help, give more details.
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:
