Hi,
try this
| Code: |
SORT FIELDS=COPY
INREC OVERLAY=(81:SEQNUM,8,ZD)
OUTFIL INCLUDE=((81,8,ZD,GE,03,AND,81,8,ZD,LE,10),OR,
(81,8,ZD,GE,25,AND,81,8,ZD,LE,40)),
BUILD=(1,80)
|
This is based on LRECL=80 and RECFM=FB

but if You have the proper DFSORT ptf' s, You could use the new subset operator
SUBSET .... RRN(3,10) RRN(25,40)
search the DFSORT forum for SUBSET |

sakrish,
You can do that quite easily using the new SUBSET operator of DFSORT's ICETOOL available with z/OS DFSORT V1R5 PTF UK90013 (July, 2008). For example:
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//IN DD DSN=... input file
//OUT DD DISP=... output file
//TOOLIN DD *
SUBSET FROM(IN) TO(OUT) INPUT KEEP RRN(3,10) RRN(25,40)
/*
|
For complete details on the new SUBSET function and the other new functions available with PTF UK90013, see:

Hi,
from the messages you have shown, it looks like you are NOT using DFSORT/ICETOOL

Hello,
You are running Syncsort rather than DFSORT.
Suggest you try with earlier code Gerry posted as the new DFSORT SUBSET operator is only available with DFSORT. |

Hi Dick,
even having DFSORT doesn't help.
My version of DFSORT is ancient and not likely to change.
Below is my version of DFSORT.
ICE201I 0 RECORD TYPE ...
the 0 indicates you do not have the July, 2008 or April, 2006 DFSORT functions. You are way behind on DFSORT functional PTFs. Ask your System Programmer to install z/OS DFSORT PTF UK90013.
You may or may not have the Dec, 2004 DFSORT functions (IFTHEN, OVERLAY, SFF, UFF, etc), which corresponds to z/OS DFSORT V1R5 PTF UQ95214. try using one of these functions - if you get errors trying to use it, then you don't even have the Dec, 2004 PTF installed.

Hi Gerry,
No, but Sai is using Syncsort and if that product is even a little bit current on their system, the ifthen should work. . .
IFTHEN & OVERLAY became available in Syncsort 1.2.x iirc. |

Hi Dick,
I was just having a private whinge about the version of DFSORT in my shop and it's very difficult to get it upgraded.

It is simply amazing (to me anyway) how many organizations allow their software to fall far behind. A business case can often be made not to be among the very first to upgrade, but when software gets several years out of date, the risk of the "old stuff" is greater than the risk of doing the upgrade - not counting missing performance enhancements and the new functionality.
Rant off. . .
Whine on. . .

Gerry,
I assume you realize that the upgrade "problem" is a problem with your shop, not with DFSORT. In fact, we ship the new functions as PTFs to make them easier to install. I don't know why your shop chooses not to install PTFs, but that's not generally the way shops operate. |

Hi Frank,
I totally agree with you, it has nothing to do with DFSORT, as you can see from the earlier message my version of DFSORT is lagging behind.
I better not say anymore.

The same in my shop. I got to know about the latest release (JUly 2008) of DFSORT from this forum and wanted that PTF to be installed in my shop.
But nothing was done and still my old shop uses the old version. We r spending more time on sort JCL's when it is actually not needed :( . |

Techies,
What does this refer to? SYNCSORT error messages usually start with WER. Please throw light on this. |

SYT messages are Synctool messages - just as WER messages are syscsort messages. |
