I have doubt regarding DFSORT,let me explain clearly

i have record which has 5columns and columns are

A(1-5) B(5-10) C(10-15) D(20-15) E(25-30)

MY doubt is how can i avoid duplicate record and copying column A,B,C IN

another dataset by sorting in said positions(forget about sorting i had done it).

please help me

Thanks

Hi Ashwin,

IF you need to avoid the duplicates the you can specify the control statement as SUM FIELDS=NONE.

And you can rearrange fields and add any constants by using OUTREC option.

Thanks,
Anu

Hi Ashwin,

I couldn't get you correctly.

Is that you mean to ask what for . in GO.SYSIN ?????

If you give Go.Sysin in the job that mean to say you are pointing to that particular step(GO).

We can't say gosysin,right!!!!!. So just to point to that particular we will say Go.SYSIN

I am still in doubt whether i answered your question or not?

Thanks,
Anu

Thanks Anu

I think you are right.But i used to think (.)dot is used to transfer control from non-procedural language to propcedural language.
