Hi,
Please let me know if we can have a PD field converted to Numeric data using SYNCSORT.
For Example: I have a file1 with the ff data
AA ---- PD field
I want to have an output file as
AA ---- Numeric data (Converted value of the PD field).
Thanks.
Regards,
Karthi |

Hi,
It would be good if you show some sample input/output with the RECFM & LRECL of input output.
By the time you may searh the JCL & or DFSORT part of the forum as well - these things have been discussed many times before. |

Hi,
I tried searching the forum. Am not able to find any matching results.
File1: LRECL is 10. First 2 bytes record type and the next 8 bytes is PD
AA--Packed data---
I want the output file as:
AA123456789012345 (Since PD of bytes is 15 bytes numeric data.)
So output file should be of 17 bytes.
Regards,
Karthi |

Hi Shashank,
Are you sure about the your job's output? Wont' the rightmost digit in the ZD field be displayed as Zoned (I mean because of overlapping sign, it should be coming as alphabet). If it is so, then it is not what the OP is expecting,
You can use the below control card of SORT
| Code: |
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTREC BUILD=(1,2,3,8,PD,EDIT=(IIIIIIIIIIIIIII),80:X)
/* |
Please correct me if i am wrong.
Thanks,
Ajay |

| Both Ajay's and Shashank's solutions should produce the desired output. |

Thanks. It works for me.
Checked on ICEMAN stuff and found that
DISPLAY can be used for the same functionality.
DISPLAY FROM(IN2) LIST(OUT2) ON(76,8,PD) ON(84,8,PD) ON(92,8,PD).
Thanks a lot for all the inputs !!
