For starers....
| Code: |
SD DIALONE-FILE
RECORD CONTAINS 760 CHARACTERS
DATA RECORD IS DIALONE-REC
01 DIALONE-REC PIC X(760). |
I really do not think that you are going to get what you want this way.....
Read the language reference: Data Division--file description entries
and the programming guide: Sorting and merging files |

You don't open or close SD files, the sort does.
Please:

Hello guptaa,
If you want help from the forum, you have to do a more complete job explaining/posting what is not working as you want.
If you post the SELECTs, the FDs/SDs, and the OPEN/CLOSE and SORT statements, we may be better able to give you assistance rather than continuing to "toss the ball" back and forth, |
