Hi ,
I want to do a sort an I/P file on first 12 bytes ,
when i am giving the SORT FIELDS=(1,12,CH,A) ,
the ouput is coming in descending order instead of ascending.
and when i am giving the SORT FIELDS=(1,12,CH,D) ,
the output is coming in Ascending order.
i am not able to find the cause of this reverse action.
Please help.
Below is the data of I/P file and sorted output file
INP file
11A019744400
11A023666500
11A025620401
11A035790200
SORT CARD
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=(1,12,CH,A)
/*
//*
sorted file output
11A035790200
11A025620401
11A023666500
11A019744400
Thanks |

Use Code tags.
What is the record format (RECFM) of your input data set? |

RECFM is VB
Below is the code i ran
| Code: |
//JS080 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=(,)
//SORTIN DD DSN=T4053.DA.I259BA.CSPCMS.HOSP837.CLAIM,DISP=SHR
//SORTOUT DD DSN=T4053.DA.I259BA.CSPCMS.HOSP837.CLMSORT,
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),UNIT=DISK,
// DCB=(RECFM=VB,LRECL=2382,BLKSIZE=0),
// MGMTCLAS=AMLYBW,SPACE=(TRK,(0500,500),RLSE)
//SORTWK01 DD UNIT=DISK,SPACE=(CYL,(100,50),RLSE)
//SORTWK02 DD UNIT=DISK,SPACE=(CYL,(100,50),RLSE)
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=(1,12,CH,A)
/*
//*
|
Thanks!!

As Akatsukami has correctly guessed, Try:
| Code: |
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=(5,12,CH,A)
/* |
However, per the data you show, is the file a "real VB"? |

So you didn't realize that your sort product would sort the record descriptor word (RDW) before your intended key? Begin by changing your sort card to be
| Code: |
SORT FIELDS=(5,12,CH,A)
|
If you still have problems, post the messages from the SYSOUT DD in Code tags. |
