Hello,

I am trying to bulild a dynamic sort card using following code:

Code:
//CTL7CNTL DD *                                         
  INREC BUILD=(2X,                                       
    C'OUTFIL FNAMES=FOUT,BUILD=(4:SEQNUM,1,BI,START=',   
      4,1,BI,C')',80:X)                                 
/*     


and i am getting following syntax error:

Code:
CTL8CNTL :                                                           
  OUTFIL FNAMES=FOUT,BUILD=(4:SEQNUM,1,BI,START= 55 )               
                                         *                           
WER428I  CALLER-PROVIDED IDENTIFIER IS "0009"                       
WER903I  SYNCSORT 1.2.1.0 IS NOT LICENSED FOR SERIAL 6FE80, TYPE 2096
WER903I  SYNCSORT WILL STOP WORKING IN  41 DAYS UNLESS A VALID KEY IS
WER268A  OUTFIL STATEMENT  : SYNTAX ERROR                           


I checked in the manuals and i found that the syntax is right. Can anyone please tell where is the problem

Rajat

Code:
  OUTFIL FNAMES=FOUT,BUILD=(4:SEQNUM,1,BI,START= 55 )               
                                         *

Assuming that the '*' has not been 'adjusted' by you, I's say that the systax checker does not like the leading blank between the '=' and the '55'....... *
