I have a file in which sales done for the whole year is present. The sales date is there in the fomat (DDMMYY).

Now I want to create a output file, which has the sales date only after 010909. Can you please suggest me a easy way to do this .

EXAMPLE I/P file :
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyy 010109 zzzzzz...
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyy 010209 zzzzzz...
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyy 010909 zzzzzz...
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyy 011009 zzzzzz...

REquired O/P file :

xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyy 010909 zzzzzz...
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyy 011009 zzzzzz...

You can use a DFSORT job like the following to what you asked for. I assumed your input file has RECFM=FB and LRECL=80, but the job can be changed appropriately for other attributes.

Code:

//S1    EXEC  PGM=SORT                                   
//SYSOUT    DD  SYSOUT=*                                 
//SORTIN DD *                                             
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyy 010109 zzzzzz...                     
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyy 010209 zzzzzz...                     
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyy 010909 zzzzzz...                     
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyy 011009 zzzzzz...                     
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*                                     
//SYSIN    DD    *                                       
  OPTION COPY                                             
  INREC OVERLAY=(81:25,2,23,2,21,2)                       
  OUTFIL INCLUDE=(81,6,CH,GE,C'090901'),BUILD=(1,80)
