Hi,

Below is my JCL
Code:
             
//STEP1    EXEC PGM=SORT                                                   
//SYSOUT     DD SYSOUT=*                                               
//SORTIN     DD DSN=Z000470.REXX.TOOL.IP,DISP=SHR                       
//SORTOUT    DD DSN=Z000470.REXX.TOOL.OUTPUT,                           
//             DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE),                                 
//             UNIT=SYSDA,                                             
//             SPACE=(CYL,(10,5),RLSE)
//SYSIN      DD *                                                       
  SORT FIELDS=(54,8,CH,A)

Why don't you start by posting the entire contents of your SYSOUT output.

LRECL parm is missing.
Try giving LRECL parm same as input dataset or use referback.

Krishna.

And if the LRECL is different from the input ?

That is just one of the reasons that the SYSOUT was requested, to be sure of things before suggesting an answer.
