I have some records in the format I000100,M000120,I000110,M000100,I000150,I000130,I000140
I want to write all the records which starts with 'I' in sorted order into another file. But in the new sorted file i dont want the letter 'I'.

Hi Naresh,

are you saying each record has 7 fields separated by a comma ?

each field is 7 bytes long ?

What's the output going to look like ?

Hi again Naresh,

what's kind of sort tools are available to your shop ??? i think that you can't answer about your problem with only JCL., You'll need REXX or SORT tool if you want to create a new file or member.
