Hi friends,
I have a file of LRECL=412 and RECFM=VB i want to copy the data from postion 13 to 412 and the ouput file should be in the FB format.
I tried using the SORT but it is not supporting when i am changing the output file format to FB it is throwing the error.
Regards,
BRKS. |

Hi,
Try something like this..
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=A123456.VBIN,DISP=SHR
//FBOUT DD DSN=A123456.FBOUT,DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
// UNIT=3390,SPACE=(CYL,(5,5))
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
OUTFIL FNAMES=FBOUT,VTOF,OUTREC=(17,416)

Anuj,
| Code: |
| OUTFIL FNAMES=FBOUT,VTOF,OUTREC=(17,416) |
The actual data starts from position 5 in a VB file and hence the outrec should be OUTREC=(5,X) where X is the VB record length.

Why did you add the RDW? noi point in adding the RDW in the output FB file.
For VB to FB conversion check the DFSORT trick topic "VB to FB conversion" at
www.ibm.com/servers/storage/support/software/sort/mvs/tricks/ |

BRKS,
The below JCL converts a VB of LRECL 412 to FB of LRECL 408.
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN= .VB.VB,DISP=SHR
//FBOUT DD DSN= .FBOUT,DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE)
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL FNAMES=FBOUT,VTOF,OUTREC=(5,408)
/*
|
What should be your final LRECL? You can add a step after this to write the data from 13 till 412.
Found a typo in my earlier post

|
Read it as X = (VB LRECL - 4) |

BRKS,
Here's a DFSORT job that will do what you asked for. I assumed that when you said position 13, you meant data position 13 which would be starting position 17 when you count the RDW in positions 1-4. If you really meant starting position 13 counting the RDW then, change the job accordingly.
DO NOT specify any DCB attributes for the SORTOUT file ... let DFSORT set them automatically.
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=... input file (VB/412)
//SORTOUT DD DSN=... output file (FB/396)
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
OUTFIL VTOF,BUILD=(17,396)

Due to this I've started from position 17 in my sort card. But was stupid enough in calculating the length  |

Hi Frank,
Is the BUILD=(17,416) instead of BUILD=(17,396).
Regards. |

Hi,
What did you try? Was there any error message?
It should be BUILD=(17,396) as per the information from your previous post.
| Quote: |
| 13 to 412 and the ouput file should be in the FB format. |
412- 12 = 400 (because you want output from position 13 of input)
400- 4 = 396 (minus four ..because of RDW) |

396 is correct for the original poster's requirement. |
