Give both input files in concatenation to SORTIN.

This will copy all duplicate records from both files to

Answer / mani
First need to sort both files
READ FILE1
READ FILE2
PERFORM UNTIL EOF = 'Y'
IF FILE1-ID > FILE2-ID THEN
READ FILE2 AT END MOVE 'Y' TO EOF
ELSE IF FILE1-ID < FILE2-ID
READ FILE1 AT END MOVE 'Y' TO EOF
ELSE IF FILE1-ID = FILE2-ID
WRITE FILE3
READ FILE1 AT END MOVE 'Y' TO EOF
READ FILE2 AT END MOVE 'Y' TO EOF
END-PERFORM

Answer / kamaldeep
We can't use SUM FIELDS=NONE,XSUM as mentioned by Harsha.
if we merge 2 files then it may be the case that input file already has duplicate records, so it will not give required output.
