Hi! This is my First post in this Forum. Here is my requirement:

2 Input Files with each of length - VB/Lrecl : 4504
2 Output Files needed each of length - VB/Lrecl = 4504

1st output file contains: Records present in File1 and missed in File2
2nd output file contains: Records present in File2 and missed in File1

Could someone pls suggest the solution using Sort Utility...

Here one more condition is there is no key field to compare . My requirement is to check byte by byte of the records. All the data in Record1 of File1 should be matching with corresponding record1 of File2.

For Example:

Input File1:

02323ABCDEFG
02323ABCDEFG
0454545BCDEFG
023243334EFG
02323ABCDEFG

Input File2:
02323ABCDEFG
02323ABCDEFG
0454545BCDEFG
03453535334EFG
02323ABCDEFG
00000000123131

Output File1:
023243334EFG

Output File2:
03453535334EFG
00000000123131

Hello again... Actually i have tried using the below code for Input File FB/lrecl = 80 and it worked well...

SYSIN DD *
JOINKEYS FILE=F1,FIELDS=(1,80,A)
JOINKEYS FILE=F2,FIELDS=(1,80,A)
REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,80,F2:1,80),FILL=X'FF'
JOIN UNPAIRED
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL FILES=01,INCLUDE=(81,1,BI,EQ,X'FF'),OUTREC=(1,80)
OUTFIL FILES=02,INCLUDE=(1,1,BI,EQ,X'FF'),OUTREC=(81,80)
/*

But when Am trying the similar code for Input files VB/Lrecl = 4504, Am getting the numeric filed error at: JOINKEYS FILE=F1,FIELDS=(1,4504,A)

Could someone please suggest me on this ..

Thank You.

it goes like this:

SYSIN:
Code:
JOINKEYS FILE=F1,FIELDS=(1,4504,A)
*
JOINKEYS FILE=F2,FIELDS=(1,4504,A)
*
REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,4504,F2:1,4504),FILL=X'FF'
JOIN UNPAIRED
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL FILES=01,INCLUDE=(4505,1,BI,EQ,X'FF'),OUTREC=(1,4504)
OUTFIL FILES=02,INCLUDE=(1,1,BI,EQ,X'FF'),OUTREC=(4505,4504)

Are those JOINKEYS starting incorrectly in cc1 or correctly in cc2?

Hima,

Try with ICETOOL. Change the compare field position before you submit it.

Code:
//S1   EXEC  PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG   DD  SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG    DD  SYSOUT=*
//FILEA DD DSN=FILEA,DISP=SHR (FB/80)
//FILEB DD DSN=FILEB,DISP=SHR (FB/80)
//T1 DD DSN=&&T1,UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(5,5)),DISP=(MOD,PASS)
//FILEC DD DSN=FILEC,DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE)   (FB/80)
//FILED DD DSN=FILED,DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE)   (FB/80)
//TOOLIN DD *
COPY FROM(FILEA) TO(T1) USING(CTL1)
COPY FROM(FILEB) TO(T1) USING(CTL2)
SPLICE FROM(T1) TO(FILEC) ON(1,9,ZD) KEEPNODUPS -
  WITH(81,1) USING(CTL3)
SPLICE FROM(T1) TO(FILED) ON(1,9,ZD) KEEPNODUPS -
  WITH(81,1) USING(CTL4)
/*
//CTL1CNTL DD *
  INREC OVERLAY=(81:C'BB')
/*
//CTL2CNTL DD *
  INREC OVERLAY=(81:C'VV')
/*
//CTL3CNTL DD *
  OUTFIL FNAMES=FILEC,INCLUDE=(81,2,CH,EQ,C'BB'),
    BUILD=(1,80)
//CTL4CNTL DD *
  OUTFIL FNAMES=FILEC,INCLUDE=(81,2,CH,EQ,C'VV'),
    BUILD=(1,80)

Well, Complete SYSOUT:

Code:

SYSIN:
    JOINKEYS FILE=F1,FIELDS=(1,4504,A)
                               *
    JOINKEYS FILE=F2,FIELDS=(1,4504,A)
                               *
     REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,4504,F2:1,4504),FILL=X'FF'
     JOIN UNPAIRED
     SORT FIELDS=COPY
     OUTFIL FILES=01,INCLUDE=(4505,1,BI,EQ,X'FF'),OUTREC=(1,4504)
     OUTFIL FILES=02,INCLUDE=(1,1,BI,EQ,X'FF'),OUTREC=(4505,4504)
   END

Then how could I compare the whole record (byte by byte) in two files in this case as my file length itself is exceeding 4080 length ... Do i have to choose some key to compare or any other solution ?? Please suggest ...

Since you are using VB input file the first 4 bytes should be used for the RDW (Record Descriptor word). So the compare fields should start from 5th byte. Try using following sort card. Here i have used input files with VB/LRECL=80

Code:
JOINKEYS FILE=F1,FIELDS=(5,76,A)                         
JOINKEYS FILE=F2,FIELDS=(5,76,A)                         
REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,80,F2:1,80),FILL=X'FF'             
JOIN UNPAIRED,ONLY                                       
SORT FIELDS=COPY                                         
OUTFIL FILES=01,INCLUDE=(85,1,BI,EQ,X'FF'),OUTREC=(5,76)
OUTFIL FILES=02,INCLUDE=(5,1,BI,EQ,X'FF'),OUTREC=(85,76)

Hello,

How does this accomplish comparing 4500+ bytes when the limit is 4080?

But my input file length itself is exceeding 4080 length.. though this code may work for VB/LRECL=80 , it would not be working for VB/LRECL=4504 ..
