Can someone help me to understand the difference between PGM=SORT and PGM=IGHRCO00. I tried googling, but did not get any solid information about IGHRCO00.

I found it in google after about 30 seconds.

IGHRCO00 is an alias.

use PGM= either with the actual name of the sort module (ICEMAN) or with one of its aliases: SORT, IERRCO00, or IGHRCO00

So would this mean I could replace PGM=SORT with PGM=IGHRCO00 and it would always return the same results?

I saw this in some of the jobs and was just curious since I could not locate much info on this other than that it is an alias. I really do not intend to invoke this at all. Thanks for the info that this dates back to 1977 :-)

...and you would probably still have got a recent answer. Some people seem to love reviving old threads....
