Hi Chandu,

If I take this as an Input

000001 4023045011870010583 AS200041001
000002 4023045011870010583 AS250041001
000003 4023045011870011587 AS200041001
000004 4023045011870011587 AS250041001
000005 4023045011870012599 AS200041001

and make the input file VB of LRECL 35.
and if you want output file which is also VB of LRECL 35 like this

000001 200041001
000002 250041001
000003 200041001
000004 250041001
000005 200041001

This job will take will do it for you ....

//STEP010 EXEC PGM=SYNCSORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DISP=SHR,DSN=PT3720A.INPUT.VB.FILE
//SORTOUT DD DSN=PT3720A.OUTPUT.VB.FILE,
// DISP=(OLD,CATLG,CATLG),
// UNIT=SYSDA
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=(11,13,CH,A)
INCLUDE COND=(27,3,CH,EQ,C'200',OR, /*23-26 SHOULD BE 200
27,3,CH,EQ,C'250') /*23-26 SHOULD BE 250
OUTREC FIELDS=(1:1,4,27,8) /*WRITE TO O/P FROM 23 ONWARDS
/*

The 4 byte gap is for the RDW in VB files.
Let me know if this works for you ....

Thanks
