Rules to Sort is if the First Charachter is B then SORT by 12 to 16 and 30 to 39 else sort by 12 to 16 only.

How can I do it in single sort control card?

Because the solution for sort related questions may vary from product to product, please ensure that you state clearly which sort product you are using.

If you are not sure, then by running a simple sort step shown below, you will be able to find out for yourself.

If the messages start with ICE then your product is DFSORT. Please also post the output of the complete line which has a message code ICE201I, as this will enable our DFSORT experts to determine which release of DFSORT that you have installed. This may also affect the solution offered.

If the messages start with WER or SYT then the product is SYNCSORT and should be posted in the JCL forum. Please also post the information telling which version of SYNCSORT is installed, as this may also affect the solution offered.

Thank you for taking your time to ensure that the valuable time of others is not wasted by offering inappropriate solutions which are not relevant due to the sort product being used and/or the release that is installed in you site.

Code:
//SORTSTEP EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN   DD *
ABC
//SORTOUT  DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
  SORT     FIELDS=COPY


You also need to provide more detail than you already have.

What is the DSORG, RECFM & LRECL of the input and output files.

This is a link to the DFSORT smart tricks documentation which has examples of doing a great many things using DFSORT and ICETOOL. I do not know if the solution you are searching is contained in here, but this is a highly useful piece of documentation which may be invaluable in the future for other requirements.
