FB to FB ... no "conversion" is needed.

VB to FB ... see the following Smart DFSORT Trick:

my problem is not exactly that. If my input file is FB with different lrecl or VB with different lrecl, I need to convert that to standard lrecl with FB.

What do you mean by "standard lrecl with FB". Please explain in more detail what you want to do. Give specific examples to make it clearer.
