Opps , the formatting got lost for the records. 'b' and 'c' are the second and third recs respectively.
Some more info : the input file is a sequential file with FB format.
Essentially I have to increase the RECLEN by 2 bytes ( the constant is '09' for example).
Just a pointer will be enough ; I can customize to my exact need.
Thanks. |

Its always good to do some 'R' (referring manual) work....
You could go with either INREC/OUTREC statement. Go thru manuals for usag e and syntax.
You could also use forum's 'search' facility, as this was discussed many times earlier. |

Pradip,
You can use DFSORT statements like this:
| Code: |
OPTION COPY
INREC BUILD=(1,2,C'09',3,2)
|
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:
