Your requirement is not clear. Neither is your example.
How large is the field ?
Spaces to the left ? in the middle ? to the right ? |

String max length is 10
1) have to find the string having atleast one space in between SUR_NAME
Eg: abcde abcde
2) SUR_NAME has complete spaces

Thanks for your response
max SUR_NAME length is 10
i want to write the records to out file where the SUR_NAME has SPACES in mid(in between SUR_NAME)
OR SUR_NAME has SPACE
If i use above INCLUDE COND i am getting the records where the SUR_NAME is not having SPACE in between
EG: if SUR_NAME is (abcdefgh) even though it doesn't have SPACE in between SRTING its writing to file
because SUR_NAME max length is 10 and the string is has length of 8 rest of 2 chars considering as SPACE
MY INPUT FILE
<----------->
1 ABCDEFGHIJ
2 ABCDEFGH
3 ABCD EF
4
DESIRE OUTPUT IS:
3 ABCD EF
4

OK, you'll need to PARSE with two fields, the first ending at blank, and the second just catching everything to your maximum length.
If the first PARSEd field is blank or if the second is non-blank, then those are the records you want. Mark them, use OUTFIL INCLUDE= and BUILD to get back to the original size. |

11 characters don't make a good example.
