Answer / krishnan a

1.first use JCL to sort the file then split the file into
two or read the file first 50 record by using count after
reached 50 then move to one file then remaining 50 move to
other file then read file1 and write by using write para
(PERFORM FILE1-WRITE1) then READ SECOND file then write
second FILE2 record(PERFORM FILE2-WRITE2)into the same
output file.

Answer / gm

Simple. Read the input file in sequence.
Store the first 50 records in a table.
When you start reading from 51st record,
Build your output record with one half of
the record from the table (record 1) and the
other half from the input that u have read (51)
and write the output record.
Loop thru till end.
