prabha,

you can use the SELECT operator of ICETOOL. Search this forum and you will find MANY similar topics.

Prabha,

You can use a DFSORT/ICETOOL job like the following to do what you asked for:

Code:

//S1    EXEC  PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG  DD SYSOUT=*
//CON DD *
1
2
3
4
/*
//    DD *
2
3
4
5
/*
//OUT DD SYSOUT=*
//TOOLIN DD *
SELECT FROM(CON) TO(OUT) ON(1,1,CH) NODUPS
/*


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:
