Hi,
Please advise, do we have equivalent code in SORT/ICETOOL as we do in cobol - INSPECT string CONVERTING substring1 TO substring1.
Example:
Input file has:
first&name
l&name
output file should be:
first name
l name
Thanks. |

Is this a one-for-one replacement?
Only an "&" for a single blank?
Or are there other symbols you need replaced? |

sudarsanreddyk,
You can use DFSORT's FINDREP function to do that kind of thing. For the example you gave, you would use a DFSORT job like this:
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
first&name
l&name
/*
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC FINDREP=(IN=C'&',OUT=C' ')
/*
|
For complete details on DFFSORT's FINDREP function and the other functions available with PTF UK90013, see:
