Hi !

Where is OUTREC specified for OUTFIL FILES=01 ???

Hi,

I used a separate outrec for the outfil 01. But got a duplicate outrec syntax message.

INREC FIELDS=(1,29,31,2,34,125)
SORT FIELDS=(34,6,PD,D, LRN
26,10,CH,D, DISCONNECT-DATE
8,10,CH,A, EFFECTIVE-DATE
1,2,PD,D, NPA
3,2,PD,D, NXX
5,3,PD,D) LINE NBR
OUTFIL FILES=01,
INCLUDE=(26,8,CH,GT,DATE2-4)
OUTREC=(1:1,29,30:C'-',31:30,2,33:C'-',34:32,125,159:15X)
OUTFIL FILES=02,START REC=1
INCLUDE=(26,8,CH,GT,DATE2-4)
OUTREC=(1:1,29,30:C'-',31:30,2,33:C'-',34:32,125,159:15X)

Hi,

Please do let me know what was wrong in the above control card. Is there any syntax issues? Thank you very much.

Of course there are syntax issues, that is why the eroor message "SYNTAX ERROR" is being displayed.

Should not the INCLUDE statement end with a comma to continue onto the OUTREC statement ?

Hello,

I think you missed out some commas( , ) here.

UmeySan · Posted: Fri Jan 09, 2009 7:08 pm

Hi !

No duplicate Outrec-Error. A normal Error cause you forgot a comma.

Syntax:

OUTFIL FILES=02, COMMA
INCLUDE=(55,1,CH,EQ,C'1'), COMMA
OUTREC=(53,01,47,06,01,03,X,11,26,X,29993,08,X,37,10,X,

Include & outrec belong to OUTFIL.

Nice weekend

When asked about the incident of the incorrect syntax, the OP was reported to have responded "No comma"

Hi friends,

Thanks for your reply.

As said correctly, start rec is not required.

I am trying to sort a file into 2 ouput files both having similar and equal number of records. One sortin and 2 sortouts in the same step.

Can you please let me know whether a single include command will do for both the outfiles. Thanks a lot for the help.

Are you trying to get two files with the same contents, or for the input file to be equally split between two outputs ?

Hi,

I am trying to get 2 sortout files with same content. I am using a common control card for both the sortout files. Thank you very much.

Arun Raj · Posted: Fri Jan 09, 2009 7:42 pm

fazilbe,

You can do the same by modifying the card to something like this.

I will try the above control card and let everybody know the outcome of it. Thank you very much.

Arun,

Control card provided by you worked without error messages. I was able to sort the file into 2 equal and similar sortouts. Thank you very much. Thank you everybody.
