I have a VB record of 10000 length.The criteria is to select those records in which there is a value 89 followed by any S9(4) COMP variable and then C'01'.
For example if the S9(4) COMP variable value is 202 I can give
(5,10000,SS,EQ,X'F8F900CAF0F1')
But I don't know the exact value in the COMP variable. So the records that should be in the output have the criteria
89<followed by a COMP variable>01. |

| Since any 2-byte field is a valid COMP variable, it really doesn't matter, does it? You should only have to check for X'F8F9' followed by X'F0F1' 2 bytes later. |

you should check the manual:
something about record size and available manipulation.
not sure if it applies, but Frank or Kolusu will be along and clear that up. |

Substring search does NOT have a wildcard capability so you can't use it to do what you want. However, you can use DFSORT's PARSE function to do it with a job like this:
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=... input file (VB/10000)
//SORTOUT DD DSN=... output file (VB/10000)
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC PARSE=(%01=(STARTAT=C'89',FIXLEN=2),
%=(FIXLEN=2),
%02=(FIXLEN=2)),
BUILD=(1,4,%01,%02,5)
OUTFIL INCLUDE=(5,4,CH,EQ,C'8901'),
BUILD=(1,4,9)
