Hi,
I searched some of the topics here, but did not find what I am looking for, so posting my query. I am sorry if there is any post which is same as mine.
I have 2 files and I need to match file 1 field with file 2 field.
I want to compare 3330101 (column starts 35) from file 1 with 3330101 (column starts from 65) in file 2.
And also I want to compare '1' (at pos 45) from file 1 with '1' from file 2 (pos at 75) again both are at different position.
I have many thousand records in the files, I want to compare both the files and want to write file 1 record without duplicates.
The unmatched records should be written to other file.
Please run this step and post the full output, which will help us determine the SORT level you have at your site.

The WER messages (and the words SyncSort) indicate you have SyncSort. Moved to JCL, where SyncSort questions live.
So, you should be getting the matched and unmatched records. What is your actual problem, what output do you get, compared to what you want?
You mention duplicates. You want all duplicates gone? Just those that are matched? Where do you want the duplicates, anywhere, or evaporated?
Hi,
I am not getting unmatched records in the unmatched file (it is empty), and also even if there is only one matching record, it is writing same record multiple times in matching output file.
I want duplicates to be evaporated.
If there is one record matched I want file 1 record to be written only once in the matched file.

Hello, there were spaces at the same position at the end of file, which lead me to bring back some unexpected results. I have stripped the file for my testing and ran the same sort option and went fine..
thanks for the quick responses and trying to help me..
