hi,,
I want to copy a VB file to another variable file,
Say eg:
Input file - LRECL - 200
and output file - LRECL - 202
where in,
i need to insert two extra postions (Packed decimal) after 11 & 12 positions, which makes the total file LRECL to 202.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Anand |

do you have a specific value that is to be inserted after 11 or is it 12?
or really is it 10? |

What have you tried so far, and what is the problem?
By "after 11 & 12 positions" do you mean the new field beginning at 13 (for length of two)? Or occupying 11 and 12 with the original data beginning at 13?
Are you including the RDW in the above positions?
What do you want to put in the new field? A packed zero, or something else? |

we just need to populate it as Spaces. it can be in position 10 |

| So, you want two spaces beginning at byte 10 (14 if you have forgotten the RDW)? Gives you something to build on when you look at the manual? |

It's not clear exactly where you want to insert the spaces. I don't know if you're counting the RDW in your positions or not. Assuming you are and you want to insert two blanks between positions 10 and 11, you could use a DFSORT job like the following:
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=... input file (VB/200)
//SORTOUT DD DSN=... output file (VB/202)
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC BUILD=(1,10,2X,11)
|
So if you had an input record like this (rrrr is the RDW):
| Code: |
rrrrABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP
|
you would get an output record like this:
| Code: |
rrrrABCDEF GHIJKLMNOP
|
Adjust as necessary. |
