Hello All,

Can we write a single record to a single file using sort?

ex:
input FB 80
123
124
125
126

i need to write these 4 records to 4 output files using sort. record count 4 is not fixed, it can be anything between 1 to 20.

Please help me out if you have any suggestion.

Mazhar,

You can use a DFSORT job like the following to do what you asked for:

Code:

//S1    EXEC  PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT    DD  SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=... input file
//OUT01 DD DSN=...  output file1
//OUT02 DD DSN=...  output file2
...
//OUT20 DD DSN=...  output file20
//SYSIN    DD    *
  OPTION COPY
  OUTFIL SPLIT,
    FNAMES=(OUT01,OUT02,OUT03,OUT04,OUT05,
            OUT06,OUT07,OUT08,OUT09,OUT10,
            OUT11,OUT12,OUT13,OUT14,OUT15,
            OUT16,OUT17,OUT18,OUT19,OUT20)
