Hi,
I have a requirement to use SELCOPY and split the output file such that the output is split between the three output files. For example if I have 31000 records in my input file, it should be split in this fashion.
First 10000 goes to output file 1
second 10000 goes to output file 2
remaining 11000 goes to output file 3.
I know the syntax in DFSORT, but not sure about SELCOPY. |

you can use the INCOUNT field to interrogate the record number of the last record read from the prime input file. SELCOPY syntax to match your spec follows...
| Code: |
READ INDD * Read the next input record.
IF INCOUNT < 10001 * Record numbers up to 10000.
THEN WRITE OUTDD1
THEN GOTO GET * Back to the first control statement.
* Record numbers > 10000 processed from here on.
IF INCOUNT < 20001 * Record numbers up to 20000.
THEN WRITE OUTDD2
ELSE WRITE OUTDD3 * All record numbers over 20000.
* SELCOPY automatically loops back to the first control statement.
* Processing ends when prime input (INDD) end-of-file is reached. |
