I have two record types :
DTL0221200810000001240000500........................
TRL02222008000000500013504238
I need to reformat the records based on the record type.
I have something like this :
| Code: |
OPTION COPY
INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,3,CH,EQ,C'DTL'),
OVERLAY=(1:32,8,9:C'0',10:20,10,20:12,10,30:4,4,34:7,2,
36:40,8,66:390,1,81:48,40,141:88,40)),
IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,3,CH,EQ,C'TRL'),
OVERLAY=(1:C'T',10:19,11,25:C'000',28:12,07))
|
What am I doing wrong here? |

The reformatting is not happening as required.

Hello,
Ok, that is not the output you want - what do you want the output to look like? |

Yes.
Also, in detail records :
LAURIE ZORN
DONNA GRIFFING
These should not appear. I only want to take specific portions of the input records and reformat it based on the record type.
Thanks for spending time. |

Then perhaps you should use BUILD instead of OVERLAY....
| Quote: |
| OVERLAY: Reformat each record by specifying just the items that overlay specific columns. Overlay lets you change specific existing columns without affecting the entire record. |
| Quote: |
| BUILD or OUTREC: Reformat each record by specifying all of its items one by one. Build gives you complete control over the items you want in your reformatted OUTFIL records and the order in which they appear. You can delete, rearrange and insert fields and constants. |

In the reformatted output record:
In position X, I want the 100th byte from input record.
In position X+10, I want the 50th byte.
Output file doesnt print any data in position X+10. cant it read 50th byte after reading 100th byte? |

Yes it can, but maybe nothing is in the 50th byte of the input..... |

Yes, it can but we don't know what control statements you're trying to use to do that or what's in your input record in those positions. You seem to make a lot of assumptions based on little information. And you seem to want answers based on giving little information. We're here to help, but you have to meet us at least halfway.
It would help if you'd show the control statements you're using. It would also help if you'd say what X is. Given that you started out using OVERLAY instead of BUILD without understanding what they do, it's hard to guess what random thing you're trying this time.
Given what you said and assuming X is 21, your BUILD would have something like this:
| Code: |
BUILD=(...,21:100,1,31:50,1,...)
|
If you want more specific help, give more information about what you're doing. Show your control statements. Show an examle of the input records (relevant fields only), what you're getting for output and what you expect for output. Give the RECFM and LRECL of the input file. Give the starting position, length and format of the relevant fields. |

My bad. The output file was specified as 80 bytes . I changed it to 200 and everything prints out.
Thanks guys. I appreciate your time and help.
From next time onwards,I would try to provide more and clear info. |
