Other than accomodating the 4-byte RDW at the begining of each variable-length record, no.
Maybe you could post your dataset attributes, your SORT control parameters, and some samples of your input data? |

Hi ,
While sorting Variable length Records we need to add 4 to the position from where we want to sort. then it will work.
e.g : suppose we have 100 length variable record
we want sort from position 10 to 20 then we have to give
14 to 24 in the sort card then it will work.
Regards,
