Hi
I have a VSAM file with layout as below
First File or the input file
| Code: |
0001XXX1
0002XX2
0003XXX1
|
If i have to copy this data into another VSAM file with the same record layout and properties. And i don't want to overlay data which already exists in the second file
Second File or the output file
I want the o/p file layout to be
| Code: |
0001XXX1
0002XX2
0003XX3
|
Is it possible to achieve this with REPRO? Is there any other method by which this could be acheived? |

Now that i know REPRO is not possible i will try SORT.
I also changed how the data in files will be. I noticed a typo from earlier
| Code: |
KSDS 1
0001XXX1
0002XXX2
0003XXX1 |
| Code: |
KSDS 2
0001XXX1
0003XXX3 |
| Code: |
o/p KSDS
0001XXX1
0002XXX2
0003XXX3 |
Where the first 4 bytes are the key of the KSDS
The o/p KSDS needs to have all data present in the 2nd KSDS and the records in KSDS1 which are not present in KSDS2. Basically i want to copy data from first KSDS into 2nd KSDS without overlaying any data |

I was wondering why enrico said No. I guess he was looking at your data, which does not match your original description in the text.
If you have on your input file a mix of keys which are already present, and keys which are not already present, and you just want those records which have keys which are not already present, the look at the manual which describes IDCAMS, find the bit about REPRO and look at REPLACE within REPRO and see if that will do what you want. |
