Use INREC and BUILD/OVERLAY for your requirement. As it is VB make sure to include 4 bytes for RDW. |

skrishnavijay,
If you do not have any records shorter than 588, then you can use the following:
| Code: |
OUTREC FIELDS=(1,583,584,4,CHANGE=(4,C'EPT4',C'EPT2'),588)
|
However, if you do not know the length of your shortest record, you can use HISTOGRM to determine this. |
