rgupta71,
Are first 4 bytes always same for a single group? 2604 in your shown example.
Do you always want to copy 1st and 3rd record set for a group? What if you have 5 or 10 recordset in a group(Example shown below)? Do you want to copy just odd number of record set within a group?
What is expected output for below records? Please provide LRECL and RECFM for input file.
| Code: |
2604,ABCD
Data of 3-4 lines
2604,ABCE
Data of 5-6 lines
2604,ABCF
Data of 1-2 lines
2605,ABCD
Data of 3-4 lines
2605,ABCE
Data of 5-6 lines
2605,ABCF
Data of 1-2 lines
2605,ABCG
Data of 1-2 lines
2605,ABCH
Data of 1-2 lines
2606,ABCD
Data of 3-4 lines
2606,ABCE
Data of 5-6 lines
2606,ABCF
Data of 5-6 lines
2606,ABCG
Data of 5-6 lines
2606,ABCH
Data of 1-2 lines
2606,ABCI
Data of 5-6 lines
2606,ABCJ
Data of 1-2 lines

sqlcode1,
he does not want to write the code/control cards,
and you expect him to waste his time trying to adequately describe the situation? |

The Input will not have data of type
2605,ABCD
Data of 3-4 lines
2605,ABCE
Data of 5-6 lines
2605,ABCF
Data of 1-2 lines
2605,ABCG
Data of 1-2 lines
2605,ABCH
Data of 1-2 lines
2606,ABCD
Data of 3-4 lines
2606,ABCE
Data of 5-6 lines
2606,ABCF
Data of 5-6 lines
2606,ABCG
Data of 5-6 lines
2606,ABCH
Data of 1-2 lines
2606,ABCI
Data of 5-6 lines
2606,ABCJ
Data of 1-2 lines
So the valid input portion is
2604,ABCD
Data of 3-4 lines
2604,ABCE
Data of 5-6 lines
2604,ABCF
Data of 1-2 lines
Output based on the condition is given in the initial post.
Thanks. |

rgupta71,
How do you expect anyone to help you when you can't explain what you want clearly. You've shown data with 2604 for input and output, then you show data with 2605 and 2606 for input and three 2604 groups for output when you previously said you want the first and third groups for output. How is anyone supposed to make sense of that?
sqlcode1 asked you several relevant questions about what you're trying to do but you didn't answer them.
If you can't explain what you're trying to do, then nobody can help you.
Show a good example of your input records and expected output. Explain the rules for getting from input to output (do you always want the first and third groups, or is the rule something more complex than that?). Give the RECFM and LRECL of the input file. |
