Hi ,
You can use sort utility. And copy the required field into other ps.
Try the following

Code:

//SYSIN DD *
  SORT FIELDS=COPY
   INREC FIELDS=(7:2,5,20:10,3)
/*


EXPLANATION

1. SORT FIELDS=COPY

It is for copy records to output file

2. INREC FIELDS=(7:2,5,20:10,3) (for formatting)

Here we have two formatting,

1. 7:2,5 - data at 2nd position of input file with length 5
copied to 7th position of output file

2. 20:10,3 - data at 10th position of input file with length 3
copied to 20th position of output file



In above example, we can use OUTREC instead of INREC,

INREC adds, deletes, or reformat fields before the
records are sorted or merged. so that performance will
be improved

OUTREC adds, deletes, or reformat fields after the
records are sorted or merged.

Hey Stly,
Just check out this sort step
Code:

//JSTY0010 EXEC PGM=SORT                       
//SYSOUT    DD SYSOUT=*                       
//SYSABEND  DD SYSOUT=*                       
//SYSDUMP   DD SYSOUT=*                       
//SORTIN  DD DSN=<INPUT_DSN>,
//          DISP=SHR                           
//SORTOUT DD DSN=<OUTPUT_DSN>,           
//          DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),           
//          DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=256,BLKSIZE=0),
//          SPACE=(CYL,(1,4),RLSE)             
//SYSIN DD *                                   
    SORT FIELDS=COPY                           
    OUTREC FIELDS=(10,10,50,20)               
/*                             |    |---------------------------|
                      starting                                       |---> Offset

stly,

If you're not familiar with DFSORT and DFSORT's ICETOOL, I'd suggest reading through "z/OS DFSORT: Getting Started". It's an excellent tutorial, with lots of examples, that will show you how to use DFSORT, DFSORT's ICETOOL and DFSORT Symbols. You can access it online, along with all of the other DFSORT books, from:
