Hi All,

Of Course, there is a huge discussion going on to add/amend the Header/Trailer records as per different requirements, When I look at the examples of Headers/Trailers that are provided are awkward in thier structure.

Can anyone let me know the standard structure of the Header & Trailer.

You could start by looking them up in the OUTFIL Control Statements section of the DFSORT Application Programming Guide

I have worked on several requirements and have found different headers/trailers.

Is there a standard structure for the header/trailer? I doubt. I have seen header's starting with HDR,H,HR etc and trailer's with TLR,T,TR etc.

You can code INCLUDE statements as per your format.

There is NO universally recognized standard for headers and trailers. I'm sure some shops have specific standards and other shops don't.
