Ok.. It says:
Quote:
WER238I POTENTIALLY INEFFICIENT USE OF INREC

So, you need to mention it as:
Code:
INREC BUILD(1,4,19,4,BI,TO=ZD,LENGTH=9,5,10500)                             
  SORT FIELDS=COPY                                                     
  OUTFIL INCLUDE=((13,1,CH,GE,C'1'),AND,                                 
                  (13,1,CH,LE,C'5')),                                   
          BUILD=(1,4,14)

Also, change that condition to 'AND' instead of an 'OR'

Try and let me know. I think this should work.

The error is INREC - SHORT RECORD

See here:
ibmmainframes.com/about56791.html

Or just reduce the length of Inrec for testing purpose only - So, instead of 10500, give something like 10400 (again this is for testing only). You need to search for the error SHORT RECORD on the web. Try it.

AND Remember the 'AND' instead of 'OR'

Hi ,

i am getting this error after i had added the

Code:
LENGTH=9,5,10500


with out the
Code:
LENGTH=9,5
, the job was running fine .

I think we are getting diverted from the main question .

@ Bill ,

Can you please let me know what i am doing wrong in the syntax ? Why is the INREC statement not filtering records ?

Did you change the 'OR' to 'AND' ?

What I meant was to do this exactly, nothing else:


Code:
  OPTION STOPAFT=10
  INREC BUILD=(1,4,19,4,BI,19,4,BI)


OK, I slightly typoed that:

Code:
  OPTION STOPAFT=10
  INREC BUILD=(1,4,19,4,BI,19,4)


And then (using view/browse or whatever you want) look at the output, and paste it here. By "output" I mean the dataset that is associated with your SORTOUT DD.

OK, so what SORT Control Cards did you use to create that? Assuming the last four bytes are the binary field, the first byte is the low-order digit of the decimal number represented by the binary and the space is a space, then everything looks OK, but that's all guessing as I don't know how you generated that file.

Bill ,

Did a small correction to the code that you had given and it had worked perfectly .

Code:
//SYSIN DD *
  INREC BUILD(1,4,19,4,BI,TO=ZD,LENGTH=9,5)
  SORT FIELDS=COPY
  OUTFIL INCLUDE=((13,1,ZD,GE,1),AND,
                  (13,1,ZD,LE,5)),
          BUILD=(1,4,14)
/*


Thanks a lot for your help and efforts .
