Here is what i am doing

Code:

  SORT FIELDS=COPY                                                 
  OUTREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,5,CH,EQ,C'ABCDE',OR,1,5,CH,EQ,C'XYZKW'), 
           BUILD=(1,105,                                           
                  106,12,SFF,PD,EDIT=(STTTTTTTTT.T),LENGTH=6,       
                  118,12,SFF,PD,EDIT=(STTTTTTTTT.T),LENGTH=6,       
                  130,12,SFF,PD,EDIT=(STTTTTTTTT.T),LENGTH=6,       
                  142,30,
                  172,5,SFF,PD,EDIT=(STTTTTTTTT.T),LENGTH=2))       



What i am trying to do is Converting 12 byte values ( it is general Decimal number like +123456789.5) to 6 Byte packed Decimal if condition 1,5 character matches to certain value.

It is giving a syntax error now..saying EDIT can appear only once.

Since you want to convert to PD, why are you using EDIT?

Code:

   ...
   106,12,SFF,PD,EDIT=(STTTTTTTTT.T),LENGTH=6, 
   ...


You can't convert to PD and use EDIT - you get to choose one or the other.


Code:

  106,12,SFF,PD,LENGTH=6,


would convert to 6-byte PD. Remove the EDITs.
