Hi,
I have a file consisting of name, date and number
I want to sort the data by name and date, and add a counter that will show how many records I have for the combination of name and date.
e.g.
name date number counter
James 14.2 50 1
James 14.2 100 2
James 14.2 70 3
James 20.2 100 1
Kevin 5.1 100 1
Kevin 14.2 50 1
Kevin 14.2 32 2
how do I do it?
thanks |

Provide samples of Input and desired Output. Make use of code tags (button Code works as a toggle), check with preview before hitting submit. Show what you have attempted by yourself, error codes and such, if any.
PS: Real OS know Datasets but not files. |

I need to add that this task cannot be done using neither JCL, nor VSAM.
Wrong forum section.
One way to do this is, using DFSORT/SYNCSORT.
Many other ways are available, too, but no JCL/VSAM under any circumstances. |
