|
|
Hi,
My requirement is to select records from an I/P file (FB, LRECL=1500) having a value X'0D'. I do not know where for what fields X'0D' comes. This value can come at any place in the records in the I/P file. I would like to get these records and put it in a output file.
Is there any way to get this done using DFSORT.
Please help.
Regards,
Chinni. |

Please do not use URGENT in the title of your post. This may be urgent for you, but almost certainly NOT urgent for anyone else on this forum.
Have you tried looking at the SS parameter for including / excluding records ? |

You can use the following DFSORT statements:
Code:
OPTION COPY
INCLUDE COND=(1,1500,SS,EQ,X'0D')
For more information on DFSORT's SS function, see:
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/ICE1CG20/2.2.6?DT=20060615173822
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:
