I have two flat files (RECFM=FB, LRECL=80) with data to be compared on 1st 8 bytes.
1st file:
| Code: |
----+----1
ABCDEF12
BCDEFG11
CDEFGH13
DEFGHI10
|
2nd file:
| Code: |
----+----1----+----2----+----3
ABCDEF13 kourt heavens
BCDEFG10 mathew hasiln
CDEFGH12 chand talborek
EFGHIJ14
|
My requirement is to compare two files on 1st 8 bytes and write matching records from 2nd file into a new file. Unfortunately, first 6 bytes only match here but I need digits from 7th and 8th columns from 1st file but rest of record from 2nd file (1st 6 bytes and info from 10th column) into my output file.
Expected Output:
| Code: |
ABCDEF12 kourt heavens
BCDEFG11 mathew hasiln
CDEFGH13 chand talborek
|
Thanks in advance. Please help. |

Why not match only the first 6 bytes in both files ??
What is stopping you in doing that??
In reformat pick first 8 bytes from File1 and the rest from File2 |
