Hello,

Ok. . . Go for it. . .

If you have a question, you need to ask it. You have made a general statement with no information as to the actual requirement.

Once you post the problem definition, someone will have suggestions.

You need to specify the "rules" for selecting records to be placed into the output file as well as the attributes of the input and output files.

Kiran,

You need to specify the select criteria for us. Under wat condition you are going to extract ?

SORT/COPY will do you the trick.

We can do it using DFSORT or SYNCSORT whichever is available in your shop.
