Hi..
Is there any utility by which we can replicate records of a file with changing a record field everytime so that the records are not duplicate.
for example
consider a record
aaa001bbbccc....
we want to replicate this record in the file 1000 times with just changing the numerical sequence like
aaa001bbbccc....
aaa002bbbccc....
aaa003bbbccc.... |

yes buddy...
use ICETOOL...sample code is given below:
INREC OVERLAY=(<change pos>:SEQNUM,8,ZD,START=<start value,INCR=<increment value>)
for details look into the ICETOOL guide... |

Hi,
The SEQUNUM will help to create the sequence number as per your requirement.The same will work if you have SYNCSORT.
Thanks

If you start at 001 and create 1000 records, the last record will have 000.
That said, you can use a DFSORT job like this:
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
aaa001bbbccc....
//SORTOUT DD DSN=... output file
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
OUTFIL REPEAT=1000,OVERLAY=(4:SEQNUM,3,ZD)
/*
|
If you want to start at 000 instead of 001, you can use:
| Code: |
OUTFIL REPEAT=1000,OVERLAY=(4:SEQNUM,3,ZD,START=0)
|

Thanks Frank , the DFSORT job provided by you worked fine  when SORTIN was defined as
//SORTIN DD *
aaa001bbbccc....
when I tried to use a DSN for the same like-
//SORTIN DD DSN=ABC.DEF.XYZ,
// DISP=SHR
it gave an error as
OPTION COPY
*
INREC REPEAT=500,OVERLAY=(4:SEQNUM,3,ZD,START=1,INCR=1)
*

vivek_elx,
Dint you notice that you have changed the
to
Change it back to OUTFIL. Also by default your sequence number starts from 1 and gets incremented by 1; so I think you dont need the "START=1,INCR=1" part. |

| Also, Vivek, the WER... messages you received indicates you have Syncsort, not DFSORT or CA-SORT or whatever. |
