Hi , Im new to ICETOOL programming.... Here is my requirement , i need to get unmatched records from File A(VB/4504) and FileB(VB/4504) after comparing two files on key pos 5-13

File1:
AAAAAAAAAAAAA
BBBBBBBBBBBBB
CCCCCCCCCCCC
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

File2:
AAAAAAAAAAAAA
BBBBBBBBBBBBB
CCCCCCCCCCCC
DDDDDDDDDDDD

output file should contain:

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I have used the below code for comparision but am not getting the required output . Please let me know if i have missed something here or pls suggest the code that would accomplish this task ....

Code:
//S1    EXEC  PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG  DD SYSOUT=*
//IN1 DD DSN=...  input fileA (VB/4504)
//IN2 DD DSN=...  input fileB (VB/4504)
//T1 DD DSN=&&T1,UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(5,5)),DISP=(MOD,PASS)
//OUT DD DSN=...  output file (VB/4504)
//TOOLIN DD *
COPY FROM(IN1) TO(T1) USING(CTL1)
COPY FROM(IN2) TO(T1) USING(CTL2)
SELECT FROM(T1) TO(OUT) ON(5,13,CH) NODUPS USING(CTL3)
/*
//CTL1CNTL DD *
  INREC BUILD=(1,4,5:C'1',6:4500)
/*
//CTL2CNTL DD *
  INREC BUILD=(1,4,5:C'2',6:4500)
/*
//CTL3CNTL DD *
  OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT,INCLUDE=(5,1,CH,EQ,C'1'),
    BUILD=(1,4,5:4500)
/*



Thank you.

By inserting the 1 or 2 into position 5, you have effectively moved the comparison field from 5,13 to 6,13

Try this and see what happens
Code:

SELECT FROM(T1) TO(OUT) ON(6,13,CH) NODUPS USING(CTL3)

Hima,

You had the right idea, but you got the ON field position and variable part of the record position wrong. Here's a DFSORT/ICETOOL job that will do what you asked for:

Code:

//S1    EXEC  PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG  DD SYSOUT=*
//IN1 DD DSN=...  input fileA (VB/4504)
//IN2 DD DSN=...  input fileB (VB/4504)
//T1 DD DSN=&&T1,UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(5,5)),DISP=(MOD,PASS)
//OUT DD DSN=...  output file (VB/4504)
//TOOLIN DD *
COPY FROM(IN1) TO(T1) USING(CTL1)
COPY FROM(IN2) TO(T1) USING(CTL2)
SELECT FROM(T1) TO(OUT) ON(6,13,CH) NODUPS USING(CTL3)
/*
//CTL1CNTL DD *
  INREC BUILD=(1,4,5:C'1',6:5)
/*
//CTL2CNTL DD *
  INREC BUILD=(1,4,5:C'2',6:5)
/*
//CTL3CNTL DD *
  OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT,INCLUDE=(5,1,CH,EQ,C'1'),
    BUILD=(1,4,5:6)
