I am trying to copy records having a field in S9(12) format.
| Code: |
FIELD NAME ---------- - PICTURE- - START END LENGTH
FIELDA S9(12) 5197 5203 7
|
I am using condition as
| Code: |
SORT FIELDS=COPY
INCLUDE COND=(5100,100,SS,EQ,X'369395124501')
|
But its not picking the record. Not sure what mistake I am doing. |

You don't have a field in an S9(12) format. What you have quoted only shows you the number of decimal digits the field will be allowed to hold (nb, depends on compiler option for a binary field).
So, you have a signed numeric field. It is either Zoned Decimal, Packed Decimal or Binary. A Zoned Decimal would be 12 bytes, a binary would be a double-word (eight bytes) and your display shows a length of seven. The length of S9(12) comp-3 (packed-decimal) would be seven bytes.
X'0369395124501C'
That is what a value of 369395124501 would look like if positive in a packed-decimal field. If negative the C would be a D. If your data may not conform to picture, then A through F would be valid for the final character in the hex string above?
Why don't you know the position? Are you searching for a value in an OCCURS? |

So that's why you couldn't find it. SS can't do "half-bytes" which is effectively what you tried (two of them).
Try with the string I suggested above. |

| Plus, if you're going to look in a specific position, for a PD, why don't you just put +369395124501? No need to do it as X'...' |

Hello,

Probably you have specified the wrong displacement/length or have specified a non-matching value. Only you can verify that your specifications are correct.
Suggest you post the complete JCL and sort control info as well as the informational messages (including the message ids) generated by the run. |

| Code: |
//INCPD EXEC PGM=SORT
//SORTIN DD *
369395124501
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTOFF1 DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTOFF2 DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC OVERLAY=(15:1,12,ZD,TO=PD,LENGTH=7,
25:15,7,PD,TO=ZD,LENGTH=12)
OUTFIL INCLUDE=(15,7,PD,EQ,+369395124501)
OUTFIL FILES=F1,INCLUDE=(15,7,PD,EQ,369395124501)
OUTFIL FILES=F2,INCLUDE=(15,7,CH,EQ,X'0369395124501C') |
All three OUTFILs give the following:
| Code: |
| 369395124501 & 369395124501 |
When I use your PD with comparison to X'...' it gives a syntax error. That would explain why that one isn't working, it's an
| Code: |
| ICE114A E INVALID COMPARISON |
If you didn't notice that one, have you got other errors in your sort deck which are preventing the correct results appearing in the output? |

Thanks a lot. Condition works. I haves used below condition finaly.
| Code: |
OPTION COPY
OUTFIL INCLUDE=(5197,7,PD,EQ,+369395124501)
|
I am using two files in SORTIN, is there a way to find out from which file this record gets selected and on finding that copy first and last record present in that file. |

You've not mentioned that bit before.
You cannot tell directly from which of concatenated files a particular record came from.
If you can set out this new requirement clearly, someone may be able to help.
What if the data appears on both files? Neither file? Is duplicate on a file?
Is there anything on the records to distinguish which file it comes from?
Is there any "count" of the records on a trailer for the files, for instance?
What are the "first" and "last" record that you want? |
