My input is :
| Code: |
| FIRST" NAME 123456789ADDRESS LINE '1 |
and I need the output to be:
| Code: |
| FIRST" NAME|123456789|ADDRESS LINE '1| |
I tried using the SQZ/JFY options in DFSORT as below.
| Code: |
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC IFOUTLEN=88,
IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,
BUILD=(1:1,50,JFY=(SHIFT=LEFT,LEAD=C'"',TRAIL=C'|"'),
54:51,9,JFY=(SHIFT=LEFT),C'|',
64:60,24,JFY=(SHIFT=LEFT,LEAD=C'"',TRAIL=C'|"'))),
IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,
OVERLAY=(1,88,SQZ=(SHIFT=LEFT,PAIR=QUOTE))),
IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,
FINDREP=(IN=C'"',OUT=C''))
/* |
But it works perfectly only if my data doesnt have double quotes.
Please suggest me on how to handle this if data has " and ' also.
Thanks. |

| Use FINDREP to change problematic character to a value which can't naturally occur in your data (X'FD', something like that). Then, after processing, use FINDREP to reverse that change. |

You're lucky I didn't see that before posting. You want it quick, you want to ask how it's going, then you find someone to pay to do it.
Here, you come for free. Acting like you're paying for it tends to reduce your chance of an answer.
It is not a complex process to come up with the answer. "This character causes a problem - if only it weren't there..." but "I do need that character after I've finished messing around". |
