Answer / suersh ramaiyan

There are four types of VSAM files.. They are
ESDS (Entry sequential Data Set)
KSDS (Key sequential Data Set)
RRDS (Relative Record Data Set)
LDS (Linear Data Set)

The KSDS vsam file will be in the sorting order of the key fields, while insert the record. So there is no need of sorting a KSDS file.

Please let me know if I'm wrong.
