Hi,
Using the DFSORT control statements below, I am able to convert a binary record into hexadecimal characters.
SORT FIELDS=(7,2,BI,A)
OUTREC FIELDS=(1,1055,HEX)
Is there a way to convert the same binary record into its BINARY format instead?
So instead of the hex characters E3E300, the output will be the binary characters 111000111110001100000000.
Thank you. |

| DFSORT does not have any built-in features for converting to bit representation. You could create bit representation using IFTHEN clauses, but it wouldn't be practical for 1055 bytes = 8440 bits. |

Hello Caleb and welcome to the forums,
Just curious. . . How would you use 8k+ ones and zeros? |
