Syncsort Get the total number of records for a key

eytellene

Hi Experts,

Is it possible for syncsort to get the number of records of the same key, and output the record key and its record count.

Thanks

eytellene,

What is the position and length of your key field(s)?
Is the data set fixed or variable?

Hi Alissa,

The datasets are fixed.

Input 1: file length 90, key 1 is in position 1, 12 bytes. key 2 is position 13, integer
11111111111112
22222222222210
33333333333322

Input 2: file length 50, key 1 is in position 1,12 bytes; key 2 position 13,integer

11111111111112
11111111111112
11111111111112
22222222222210
22222222222210
33333333333322

Output must be file length, 30 ,key 1 position 1,12 bytes,key 2 position 13, integer;number of records in file 2 with the same key 1 and 2 in file 1 position 15

1111111111111203
2222222222211002
3333333333332201

Thanks in advance
