Hi,
My requirement is if I have c,d,b,1,a,3,2,4 then after sorting I should get 1,2,3,4,a,b,c,d. but since in hexadecimal code digits comes after the alphabets I always get like a,b,c,d,1,2,3,4. Can someone help me out please? |

| Note that in ASCII numbers come before letters. If you need an ALTernative SEQuence, there are other possibilities. |

Don't give us too much information to work with, will you.
Saying that it doesn't work is useless without showing us at least the SYSOUT segment from the job. How do you think that we can possibly help without any information.
I have tried the code supplied by Pandora, and IT DOES WORK
So, please show the SYSOUT segment from your supposedly not working job, as it may be that you ARE NOT using DFSORT, yet requesting a DFSORT solution. All other sort products should be posted in the JCL section of the forum. |

Hello,
Well, ok. . .
I would surely want to know what i had done wrong that the original code did not work. Not knowing will very probably be an issue on some other task.
I suspect it is the uninitialized value in pos 81 . . .
And when several senior people ask for info, it is a very good idea to post it . . . |

Hi D.scherrer,
Yes, you are right, I checked again my previous code and found some junk characters from 75 byte because of which it was not working earlier..Thanks again.. |
