hi,

Im a trying to use SORT on a group of records.
The record length is 671 (FB)
The record format is :


1----------------------248 <-- cols
01685632039.......UVWXYZ
02685632039
04685632039
05685632039
06685632039
01615631706.......ABCDEF
02615631706
04615631706
05615631706
04615631706
05615631706
04615631706
05615631706
04615631706
05615631706
06615631706

One group is 01 to 06 in the first column
I want to write all the groups which have ABCDEF at 248th column in file 1 and the rest in file 2.

Im using the following control card to achieve the same :

Code:

OPTION COPY                                     
INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=GROUP,BEGIN=(1,2,CH,EQ,C'01'),
             PUSH=(672:248,6))                   
OUTFIL FILES=1,                       
       INCLUDE=(672,6,CH,EQ,C'ABCDEF'),
BUILD=(1,671)                         
OUTFIL FILES=2,                       
       OMIT=(672,6,CH,EQ,C'UVWXYZ'),   
BUILD=(1,671)                         


The problem is that im getting a 'Syntax error' for the when=group statement and a 'statement definer error' for the Push statement?

What am i doing wrong?

Your syntax is ok, so I'd guess that you don't have z/OS DFSORT V1R5 PTF UK90013 (July, 2008). That PTF is required to use WHEN=GROUP. Ask your System Programmer to install that PTF (it's free).
