Hi all,
I have 2 PS data sets (both contain the date info as DDMMYYCC format ex: 19091820) and some text
| Quote: |
| date your order placed and delivery would be on date |
.
I need to combine all the above data into single PS data set and needed below reformatted output file:
| Code: |
| 19-09-2018 date your order placed and delivery would be on date DD-MM-CCYY |
Could any one can help me to achieve this through SORT JCL.?
Thanks,
Wik |

What have you tried yourself and with what result?
You don't say what's in which dataset or where the first date (19-09-2018) and last date (DD-MM-CCYY) come from. What positions do the various fields occupy in which dataset? For inputs and output - what RECFM? What LRECL ?

| "SORT JCL" will not help you! What you need are sort control statements. Sort JCL is simply the JCL that tells the operating system that you want to run a sort program and the data sets (not files) required. |

Hi Garry Carroll,
I tried with MERGE and REFORMAT in sort fields, but it did not works.
Both the PS files are with Record length = 80, Record format =FB and date value starts from 2 to 9th column. 1st PS file contain date 19-09-2018 and next file contains last date DD-MM-CCYY (in DDMMYYCC not DD-MM-CCYY format).
Thanks,
Wik |

For newcomers, JCL is everything what is not a computer game.   |

Show us your control statements,
the output that you created,
and the output that you want. |

And you expect us to imagine what went wrong? You got to give us the code as to what you tried and then someone could then happily help you to correct. |

wik123,
Besides this, can you also post the data from both the inputs, If one of the inputs is only having constant text, you could hard-code it in your control statements instead of merging.

Do you have hyphens in the input date as mentioned here? If yes, then the positions 2-9 do not match with that. |
