Naresh,
Here is a sample SORT application:
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=input.file,...
//SORTOF01 DD DSN=output.file1,...
.
.
.
//SORTOF10 DD DSN=output.file10,...
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL FILES=(01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10),SPLIT
/* |
Hope this helps. |

Thanks for the above solution...It is not giving me the reqd output..
I will explain my req with an example..
Consider my input is having 10001 records..i wanted to split into 10 files.So i want first 1000 in file1, next 1000 in file2.........and last 1001 in file10.
If the count is exactly divisible by 10..i can use spliyby...but that is not the case for me...
The record count in the input file always varies and may not be divisible by 10... |

1.i have to get the record count of the input file
2.divide that by 10
3.give the quotient to the other step where we use SPLITBY function..
can we achieve this in a jcl with 1 r more sort steps.. |

Hello,
Did you run the code Alissa provided?
If not, do so now and post back here what happens and if there is some reason this will not work for your requirement. |

Dick,
I believe Naresh is saying that the "round-robin" technique of SPLIT is not what they need, but rather consecutive chunks of records in each OUTFIL... |

Naresh,
You can use the technique shown in the "Split a file to n output files dynamically" Smart DFSORT Trick at:
Use [URL] BBCode for External Links
Note that SPLIT1R is a better choice than SPLITBY. |

I have searched the forum and built a code according to my req...but giving some error..can anyone pls solve that..
1. i am creating a file with the following string and value generated dynamically.
| Code: |
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTREC FIELDS=(C' SPLIT1R=',1,15,ZD,DIV,+10,M11,LENGTH=15) |
2. I am giving the above generated file in the following step..
| Code: |
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL FILES=(01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10),
// DD DSN=TEST.CNTL.CARD.COUNT,
// DISP=SHR
/* |
the error in the sysout is as follows
| Code: |
SYSIN :
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL FILES=(01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10),
SPLIT1R=000000000001000
WER274A CONTINUATION STATEMENT ERROR FOUND

nareshkareti,
SPLIT1R is Supported only by SyncSort 1.3 or later. Are you running an older version? |

Hi,
if SPLIT1R is not supported, it would generate
| Code: |
| WER274A CONTINUATION STATEMENT ERROR FOUND |
is there non blank values before SPLIT1R ?

I am using SYNCSORT FOR Z/OS 1.3.1.0N
The string in the cntl card file looks like this
| Code: |
----+----1----+----2----+--
SPLIT1R=000000000001000 |

Hi,
have you checked with HEX ON to see if the first 4 bytes are blank.
Also
| Code: |
| OUTREC FIELDS=(C' SPLIT1R=',1,15,ZD,DIV,+10,M11,LENGTH=15) |
shows 2 spaces before SPLIT1R, yet
| Code: |
----+----1----+----2----+--
SPLIT1R=000000000001000 |
shows 4 spaces.

Naresh,
The SYSIN control card is supposed to have an LRECL=80. Hence change your sort card in step1 to this,
| Code: |
| OUTREC FIELDS=(C' SPLIT1R=',1,15,ZD,DIV,+10,M11,LENGTH=15,80:X) |

Thank u very much Arun...
I made the lrecl of the cntl file as 80 and made the values after the string as spaces and it worked...
Here is how i built the cntl card
| Code: |
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTREC FIELDS=(C' SPLIT1R=',1,15,ZD,DIV,+10,M11,LENGTH=15,26:X) |

Naresh,
You're welcome. Glad that it worked for you. 
But it should have been 80:X instead of 26:X |

Arun,
Could you please tell me why it should be 80:X...as the first 25 places are occupied by the string.. |

Hi,
What LRECL do you expect for the outputs? |

80:X - increases the record length of the output record to 80 padded with blanks.
