@ Frank

Ya i meant it as DFSORT
Can it be done in DFSORT i compiled the code and it gave syntax errors
Here people feel it would be better if its SORT step rather than ICEMAN step if so how to proceed further to put the same using DFSORT

regards
Edwin

Hello,

ICEMAN and SORT execute the same load module. . . What works in one works in the other unless someone has "broken" your configuration.

Hello,

My guess is that your system does not have the ptf from July installed.

What happens if you use the second example that Frank provided?

@dick

second example works fine with ICETOOL
will that be possible to be implemented in DFSORT

Edwin,

The first example uses DFSORT (PGM=SORT or PGM=ICEMAN - they are equivalent). It requires z/OS DFSORT V1R5 PTF UK90013 (July, 2008). If your System Programmer installs that PTF, you can use that example.

The second example uses DFSORT's ICETOOL (PGM=ICETOOL). It does NOT require that PTF.
