Hi,
I want to multiply two records from the a record of the input file and write the product in the output file.
Ex:
000023050007789022222
My requirement is to multiply fields 023 and 05 to produce 115 and replace 023 and write it in the output.
Regards,
Nirmal |

You can use a DFSORT job like the following to do what you asked for:
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
000023050007789022222
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC OVERLAY=(4:4,3,ZD,MUL,7,2,ZD,TO=ZD,LENGTH=3)
/*

If you're not familiar with DFSORT and DFSORT's ICETOOL, I'd suggest reading through "z/OS DFSORT: Getting Started". It's an excellent tutorial, with lots of examples, that will show you how to use DFSORT, DFSORT's ICETOOL and DFSORT Symbols. You can access it online, along with all of the other DFSORT books, from:

Hi Frank,
should the overlay be
| Code: |
INREC OVERLAY=(4:4,3,ZD,MUL,7,2,ZD,TO=ZD,LENGTH=3)
/*
|
Also what happens when the product is greater than 999, is the OP happy with the truncation ?

Yes, you're right that 4-6 should be overlayed. I've fixed my post.

That's what the OP asked for, so that's what I gave him. If overflow is a possibility, then the OP would have to explain what he wants in that case before I could show him what to do about it. |
