Answer / sivakumar sekharannair
Kavya's answer is correct.
i used the following control card
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=(1,3,CH,A),
STOPAFT=8
Input file contained the following records
IMSDEVELOPER CSAA
IMSPRODSUPPORTXEROX
IMSTESTER EMDAC
IMSDEVELOPER CSAA
CICPRODSUPPORTXEROX
IMSTESTER EMDAC
The output i got was
CICPRODSUPPORTXEROX
DB2PRODSUPPORTEMDAC
IMSDEVELOPER XEROX
IMSDEVELOPER CSAA
IMSDEVELOPER CSAA
IMSPRODSUPPORTXEROX
IMSTESTER EMDAC
