If the columns in the input are like ACCNO, NAME, BALANCE. How can we create a output file in the format NAME, ACCNO , BALANCE?

Hi,

Man you should give the field length rather then the names.

Okay lets take 1-10 as ACCNO
11-30 as NAME
31-40 as BALANCE

For a sort your sysin should be

Code:

SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTREC FIELDS=(11,20,1,10,31,10)
/*


Your out put file will have its NAME,ACCNO,BALANCE

Regards,

Or using DFSORT symbols:

Code:

//S1    EXEC  PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT    DD  SYSOUT=*
//SYMNAMES DD *
ACCNO,1,10
NAME,*,20
BALANCE,*,10
/*
//SORTIN DD DSN=...  input file
//SORTOUT DD DSN=...  output file
//SYSIN    DD    *
  OPTION COPY
  OUTREC FIELDS=(NAME,ACCNO,BALANCE)
/*
