| Why do you want to do it thru "COBOL SORT" and not an external SORT which would be more efficient? |

That's a statement, there is no question. I'd say, fine, just do it -- what's stoping you? |

Hello,
In the SD create a new high-level sort-key that would identify the hdr, data, and trlr as 1, 2, 3. . .
Then (as Anuj suggests) - just do it. . . |
