Is there any way to display a value present in input file in SYSOUT when we sort that file.

Ex:
My input file contains Cycle record as first record which contains the date of that file created.
Is there any option I can include which displays that date in SYSOUT.

Why you want to include date from sysout when you have DATE1 DATE2 DATE3 etc formats to compare current date?

Cant you post your input file and required output?

The date on which input file created will be stored in input file as cycle record. I don't want to do any changes to output file, only I want to display that date value in SYSOUT messages. That I will be using for my further processing.
