hi everyone,

how to set column position in record??

my problem is in the position columns, only from records begins with VFY, how to order there?

VFY (begins always from column 1 to 3)
APP (begins always from column 5 to 12)
RESPONSABILE (begins always from column 14) but not finish in determined column
AREA (begins always 3 "space" before from RESPONSABILE data)
CRITICA (begins always 3 "space" before from AREA data)
CELL (begins always 3 "space" before from CRITICA data)


between a column and the other must be a 3 space (only in RESPONSABILE, AREA, CRITICA, CELL)

input

Code:
VFY APP      RESPONSABILE                             AREA                CRITICA        CELL
VFY WIAX8    name surname 1 new WIAX8                 TEST WIAX8          NO             WIAX81
VFY WIAX8    name surname 2 new WIAX8                 TEST WIAX8          NO             WIAX82

Use the PARSE statement to break up the existing statement. Then use an assignment statement with concatenation operators.
Code:

line1 = vfy app '   ' ||,
           resp '   ' ||,
           area

Use a TSO ALLOCATE statement then use EXECIO to read the file into a rexx stem. I think there are plenty of examples already posted in this forum. Use the search function.
