Yes Bill. You are absolutely right. I want exactly what Arun has mentioned in his output. The only change thing thats need to be modified is, I want '|' as well in my output file. I am totally pissed off with this. 
Someone please help. |

But your input is not the same as your original input. Data that you want is now lined-up with data that you don't want. So when you do the exclude as from the original sample data, you loose all the "ID" and "I" stuff etc.
Can you get the line-up back to your original example? |

Understandable as you are just flailing away. . .
Suggest you consider how you would get what you want writing actual code and then implement same in sort control statements.
Your control statements need to be specific rather than just some collection of positions and values. . . No one here should fiddle with code that does not even follow the processing rules. |

dare I ask?
what does the current input look like?
what do your control statements look like?
to simply remove lines with spaces, omit 10,30,ch,eq,30C' ' |

Is there some reason you did not post the modified sort control and jcl. . .

When you change the code, expect different output. . .
As you have changed things multiple times, suggest you re-post the current input data, the current jcl/sort control, and the current output if you have not determined why you do not get the desired output. By continuing to flail about, this topic is now into 3 pages - 2 of which are not really needed.
If this ever gets resolved, i'll try to clean up the unneeded posts. . . |

The column where the first pipe is has a non-blank in every line you want. If you exclude blanks in that column, you should get the output - remembering the VLTESTI for the short lines. Might keep it simpler having got this output to do a second pass just for the blanks as a "get the damn thing out of the way" if you don't get it with the OMIT all together. |

Hello,
Please post ALL that was requested. . . You posted 1 of 3. . .
Best to have the input, the jcl/code, and the unwanted output with an explanaton all in the same post. . . |

Hi Dick,
Change in the input data format did most of the damage. The solution provided was as per what had been told so far by the OP. And the requirements have been contradictory as well. Initially '||" was not needed and all of a sudden it is needed.
As Bill has pointed earlier in this thread, the data required is tied to the data not required now. Other than 'PRINT', there seems to be so many other strings which are to be checked if we follow the OP's data omission rules.
| Code: |
PRINTOUT=SYSPRINT HEADERPG=YES ASCII=NO RECLIMIT=(1,*)
PRINTLEN=132 PAGESKIP=NO PAD=OFF MSGUPPER=NO
PAGESIZE=60 DATAHDR=YES PRTCLASS=A LANGUAGE=ENGLISH
PRTTRANS=ON DUMP=UPDOWN TAPELBL=SL CYLHD=ABSOLUTE
SMFNO=000 PRTDISP=MOD USEIOX=DISABLE IOX= |
Let's hope that the TS comes up with a better explanation of his/her requirement. |

Priyanka,
i dont know whether you have found out the answer for your requirement.
but my idea is there is an option called SUBSTRING
use this condition and run your JCL it will work.
SORT FIELDS=COPY
INCLUDE COND=(1,50,SS,NE,C'||')
FYI...i considered the file as FB and lrecl is 50 bytes.
in case of VB the values differ.
please let me know if you have any questions,
thanks,
Ravi. |

Hello,

INCLUDE COND=(1,50,SS,NE,C'||') |
Has this been tested to see if it meets the complete requirement? I'm fairly certain that it does not. . . |

Hello Dick,
As you said, I also had an impression that its not going to help me and that was true. I tried but it didn't help. |

Hello,
I suspect that somewhere in your job description is "write program code".
Maybe it is time to write a bit and be done with this. . . |
