I have a sequential file . My requirement is I need to write the records into another file which has a particular word in it. Say 'XXXX' . this word can at any position in the record. Can I do it using any SORT utility ?

Hello Deep,

Please find below DFSORT card but I am not sure whether it will work with Syncsort or not

Code:
//SYSIN DD *
  OPTION COPY
  INCLUDE COND=(1,2000,SS,EQ,C'XXXX')
/*
