Hi All,
Thanks in advance for giving your valuable time.
I have a requirement where for a key I will have multiple rows. I won’t be knowing in advance that for which key how many rows will be. It could be one , 3, 10, my need is to create a single row for a key in output along with other details from the other rows.
For example
This is how Input would be
KEY NAME ID
KEY1 ABCD 102
KEY1 EFGH 201
KEY2 XYZA 301
KEY3 SSSS 111
KEY3 ABCD 545
KEY3 FDGH 345
And so on
Expected output in this case would be
KEY1 ABCD 102 EFGH 201
KEY2 XYZA 301
KEY3 SSSS 111 ABCD 545 FDGH 345 |

1. Try to be polite to possible readers of your post:

2. Do you know the maximum limit of expected equal keys?
If not, there is no (reasonable) solution for this problem. |

Hint:
Search for examples of using SPLICE statement of ICETOOL/SYNCTOOL (both programs use the same syntax; you can borrow one example from another) |

P.S.
It is a very bad idea to give the topic name like
This issue has nothing to do with JCL language.
It is completely SORT utility control statements discussion. |

Thanks for advise.
Maximum limit for a key would be 10. |

Hint #2.
In case you do not have any manual on the tool you are going to use (very strange situation!), you can try to check this online copy of DFSORT/ICETOOL manual:
DFSORT Application Programming Guide
Please, refer to Example 4 on page 648. This covers 95% of your particular task. |
