Input file:VBA, record length=240
Code:

 DSNT490I SAMPLE DATA UNLOAD PROGRAM                                           
 DSNT505I DSNTIAUL OPTIONS USED: SQL                                           
 DSNT503I UNLOAD DATA SET SYSPUNCH RECORD LENGTH SET TO    80                   
 DSNT504I UNLOAD DATA SET SYSPUNCH BLOCK SIZE SET TO 27920                     
 DSNT506I INPUT STATEMENT WAS NOT A FULL SELECT ON A SINGLE TABLE. LOAD STATEMEN
 DSNT503I UNLOAD DATA SET SYSREC00 REC456 LENGTH SET TO   269                   
 DSNT504I UNLOAD DATA SET SYSREC00 BLOCK SIZE SET TO 27976                     
 DSNT495I SUCCESSFUL UNLOAD            1 ROWS OF TABLE TBLNAME                 
 DSNT506I INPUT STATEMENT WAS NOT A FULL SELECT ON A SINGLE TABLE. LOAD STATEMEN
 DSNT503I UNLOAD DATA SET SYSREC01 REC786 LENGTH SET TO   526                   
 DSNT504I UNLOAD DATA SET SYSREC01 BLOCK SIZE SET TO 27878                     
 DSNT495I SUCCESSFUL UNLOAD            5 ROWS OF TABLE TBLNAME                 


Sort control card I am using is

Code:

OPTION COPY,VLSHRT                                   
INCLUDE COND=(38,6,SS,EQ,C'00 REC,01 REC')           
SORT FIELDS=(44,3,ZD,D)                             
OUTFIL BUILD=(34,7,64,4,UFF,EDIT=(TTTT),80:X),CONVERT


I am trying to sort the records with the strings REC456, REC786 that are in byte 44(that includes RDW).

Current Output
Code:

REC00 0269
REC01 0526


Expected Output
Code:

REC01 0526
REC00 0269


What is the mistake in the control card?

Regards
Amar

Remove
Code:
OPTION COPY

Quote:
The sort statement is ignored because the COPY option has been specified.

Sometimes the answer is right in front of the face and can't notice it. icon_biggrin.gif I was doing lot of permutations and combinations and didn't notice this.

Thank you for highlighting and it worked. icon_smile.gif
