Hi,

When we give a proc inp member, does it require to give a space in the procinput

Ex:-
Code:
//S020    EXEC PGM=SORT                               
//SYSOUT  DD SYSOUT=(,)                               
//SORTIN  DD DSN=EXAMPLE.U.MJYI(RE251S),DISP=SHR 
//SORTOUT DD DSN=EXAMPLE.RE251.U.MJYI.SRT,DISP=SHR     
//SYSIN   DD DSN=EXAMPLE.WERK.U.PROCINP(AM251),DISP=SHR


IN AM251 the sort card present is:-

Code:

OPTION COPY                                           
  INREC  IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,1,CH,EQ,C'2'),               
         OVERLAY=(1:C'1',21:C'N',22:C'N',23:C'1')),   
         IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,1,CH,EQ,C'0'),               
         BUILD=(1:5,58)),                             
         IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,1,CH,EQ,C'9'),               
         BUILD=(1:5,58))                             
  END                                                 



Since the OPTION COPY is starting from position 1 I get some error. Also i wanted to know whether the OVERLAY used here is correct.

Please help me for the same!!

Regards,
Anand

Hello Anand and welcome to the forum,

No sort control statement should begin in col 1.

Does your system use DFSORT or Syncsort? I'll move your topic to a better part of the forum once we know which product you use.

Hi Dick,

Thank you very much.
The system uses DFSORT

Anand,

Regardless of the source of DFSORT control statements, you must have at least one blank before the verb (e.g. OPTION, SORT).

Well, the syntax is valid. Whether it does what you want depends on what you're trying to do. Note that the following simplified version would be equivalent to what you've coded:

Code:

   OVERLAY=(1:C'1',21:C'NN1')),

Why not just edit "EXAMPLE.WERK.U.PROCINP(AM251)" and correct it?
