Hello,
I have a flat file (FB) recl 2004. I have a header and a detail records.
I have to change the value of the hearder only. I have to change 159th and 160th position. And we use syncsort in our shop.
Please help. |

Hello,
How is a header known from a detail? What is the recfm? Do you want to change "from" some particular value "to" some other or do you want to change all of the headers to the same "to" value?
What release of Syncsort is used on the system? |

Hi,
In addition to what Dick has asked - it's always good to show a bit of your input, rules & the expected output for such questions. . . |

First of all the header would be just a single record in the file so you could just change it manually as the change is only for 2 bytes from FILE-AID if you know the value that would be move to those 2 positions. 
And if thats not the case

Just check how is a header identified in the file, and then based on it use a SORT condition first which should only filter out the header, after that you could use OUTREC function that would allow you to change the value at that particular position in the header. |
