Hi,
i used symnames to pass a parameter in the Sort card.It worked fine if i have a single value.
If i use multiple values in SYMNAMES using a DSN ,
eg.
IF i use the SYMNAMES as
//SYMNAMES DD *
CV,C'11'
CV,C'12'
/*
im getting an error
| Code: |
*** ERRORS IN SYMNAMES STATEMENTS ***
CV,C'12'
*
*** DUPLICATE SYMBOL DEFINITION ***
|
| Code: |
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SORTIN DD *
11 RAVI
11 RAM
11 RAJ
12 RADSF
13 RASDFD
/*
//SYMNAMES DD *
CV,C'11'
/*
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
INCLUDE COND=(1,2,CH,EQ,CV)
/*
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
|
Please help us in achieving this using SYMNAMES.
Thanks. |

You'll get an error because your symbols have to be unique. When you use CV and then re-use it, the second one is not unique, so error.
If you tell us what you are actually aiming to achieve, there'll be some ideas.
Well done on using SYMNAMES, by the way. |

Raghuraman,
Guess, you are trying to pull records having 11 or 12
| Code: |
//SYMNAMES DD *
CV,C'11,12'
/*
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
INCLUDE COND=(1,2,SS,EQ,CV)
|
Thanks
