Quote: i want to sort the file those records in both files in one output file and those belong to individuals in the other output file....

If I m not mistaking, U r looking for two o/p files.
One having all the values from File 1, which are also there in File 2.
Second having all the recs from both files which are not in the other file.

If Yes....Please try this code.

Code: //S010 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//IN DD DSN=INPUT.FILE.FIRST,DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=INPUT.FILE.SECOND,DISP=SHR
//OUT DD DSN=OUTPUT.FILE.NO.DUP,
// DISP=(,KEEP,DELETE),
// RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,
// SPACE=(80,(10,10),RLSE)
//TOOLIN DD *
SELECT FROM(IN) TO(OUT) ON(1,[b]L[/b],CH) NODUPS
//

This will give you Not duplicate values. Replacing NODUPS in the code with ALLDUPS will give you duplicate values. Also change "L" in the code to the field value of yours (1 in your given example).

Let me know, if having any question.

Regards,

Priyesh.

pbgunasekar,

You can use the following DFSORT/ICETOOL job to get the matching records in one file and the non-matching records in another file:

Code:
//S1 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//CON DD DSN=... input file a
// DD DSN=... input file b
//MATCH DD DSN=... output file with matching records
//NOMATCH DD DSN=... output file with non-matching records
//TOOLIN DD *
SELECT FROM(CON) TO(MATCH) ON(1,1,CH) ALLDUPS DISCARD(NOMATCH)
/*

MATCH will have:

2
2
4
4

NOMATCH will have:

1
5
6
7

If that's not what you want, then show me the records you want in each output file and explain what you're trying to do.
