Hi Gursharan Khalsa,

Please be specific what u need exactly.

1. Is it a flat file or Vsam file

2. Do you need any Utilities or program logic or some commands?

You could do one thing,

1. open the multiple-in-files

2.read the files

3.write the records to multiple-out-files

4.close the files.

If you provide some more info, some may help you to achieve what you need.

Thanks,
Rajulan.

Your suggestion sounds programatical.

DFdss is the IBM supplied data movement utility which can process all file types, with excellent filtering techniques using a single job step.

And have you read my original reply ?
and then looked at the manual linked to it

As for your comment about no program at all ..... er, what do you think a utility is if not a program ?
