I am using SORT to copy records from 1 ps file to another. I want to copy only the name field.
How can I do this. |

Hello,
To receive more usable replies, you need to post your jcl and control statements, the desired output, and any diagnostic info presented by the execution.
It sounds like you want to write 30-byte fixed-length records, but have specified variable length. . . |

As dick is pointing you need to provide some more info...
 you need to specify the attributes(FB/VB, LRECL) of i/p and o/p files. |
