I'm trying to sum all the value in a file and display in sysout. The field starts at position 964 and has a (COBOL) definition as S9(12)V9(6). I'm using following sort card for getting the totals in this column 964, sortout is coming out blank.
| Code: |
OPTION COPY
OUTFIL REMOVECC,NODETAIL,
TRAILER1=(964:TOT=(964,10,PD,TO=PD))

raghavmcs,
Your output total is also a 16 byte PD field which you cannot see in normal mode. You need to type HEX ON and look at the contents of it in pos 964. |

Your result would be a 16-byte PD field starting in position 964.
PD fields are NOT readable (e.g. a 10-byte PD value might be X'0000000000000000501C' which would not be displayed as anything you could read directly), so to see the actual output, you would have to display it in hex or convert it back to character.
Also, do you really want the output value at position 964 rather than at position 1? |

Thanks I changed TRAILER1=(964:TOT=(964,10,PD,TO=PD)) to
TRAILER1=(1:TOT=(964,10,PD,TO=PD)) and now I can see sum in position 1 with hex on |
