Are the HEADERs for the groups on the two files always identical for a group?
|
The file will have only one HEADER and yes.....they are identical.

Do the TRAILERs simply contain the word TRAILER, or some other "constant" value, or what?
|
Yes......it is just TRAILER and nothing.
Thanks. |

Ramsri,
I've lost track of whether you can use JNFnCNTL files.
If not, use OMIT on the JOINKEYS for your F2 to get rid of the header and trailer.
They will then "pop up" on your F1,ONLY output. In the wrong order.
You'll have to SORT them. Append an X'00' to the header, X'FF' to the trailer and C'1' to each data record. SORT on with, with EQUALS.
Or make a sequence number, set to zero for the header, and all 9 for the trailer. SORT on that, with NOEQUALS.
Don't forget to cut the record back down afterwards (OUTREC BUILD=).
If you can use JNF1CNTL, then the processing to order the header and trailer can be done in there and the cut-down in the REFORMAT. |
