sridhar_sasumana,

GENERATE MAXFILDS
tells that the output dataset contains edited for of input data .

Quote:
//GENERATE MAXFILDS=1

it says that one FIELD parameter to appear in subsequent RECORD
stmt
Quote:
RECORD FIELD = (60,1,1)
The syntax for above record stmt is wrong , it should be
FIELD=(length,input location , conversion , output location)
all params for field are positional
RECORD FIELD = (60,1,,1)

RECORD FIELD = (60,1,,1)
1 to 60 bytes of input data set are to be copied into output dataset
