| It's not clear what you want to do. Please show an example of your input records and what you want for output. You can use a b to represent each blank if that will make it clearer. |

Hi Frank,
Here is an example
Input File A
1234669
2358965
1523698
1758963
1258935
1452368
Output File B
1234669
2358965
1523698
1758963

I just have to eliminate the rows with spaces from file A and write records in File B |

Hi ,
We can use omit cond for the same to remove the spaces .
Another way is to do with fileaid 3.3 option. There when copying to another dataset use Quick option and provide the starting position and length of field .for ex
1 , 7 ne ' '
this will copy all the records where there will be no spaces.
Correct me if i m wrong.
thanks |

You can use the following DFSORT job to do what you asked for:
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=... input file
//SORTOUT DD DSN=... output file
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
OMIT COND=(1,7,CH,EQ,C' ')
/*
