Hi,

I have a file with the records as below starting from column 1
Code:
BEGINXYZ123456789                     x
123455667899999089
2345556576JAFDSJAA
END                                          E
BEGINABC345RTYYYS                     x
4564779QWER080090
7867ASDJDF98U9U99
END

Here 1 record means it will be from BEGIN to END. I am setting up a flag x for the lines that starts with BEG from column 1 to column 3.
Now when ever there is flag X and E in End then i need to remove the complete record and write from next record that is next begin.

Could you please tell me how to solve this?

Code'd

Please use the Code tags to preserve spacing of data.

Please run this, and paste the full sysout, in the Code tags.

Code:
//LEVEL EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
CAN BE ANYTHING
/*
//SORTOUT DD DUMMY
//SYSIN   DD   *
  OPTION COPY
/*


LRECL and RECFM of you file. Position of you x and E values.
