Answer Posted / pullareddy
1. SORT FIELDS=COPY ===> To copy all the records from
SORTIN to SORTOUT.
2. SORT FIELDS=COPY,SKIPREC=100,STOPAFT=5 ===> TO copy the
records from 100 to 105.
3. SORT FIELDS=(STARTPOS,LENGTH,TYPE,ASC/DESC) ===> TYPE
can be: ZD(zoned decimal), CH(Charecter),BI(Binary),PD
(Packed decimal), and FS(Signed numbers).
4. INCLUDE COND=(STATPOS,LENGTH,TYPE,RO,VALUE) EX: INCLUDE
COND=(1,5,CH,EQ,C'PULLA) ===> To select the paticlular
record. same as above to omit the record replace INCLUDE
with OMIT.
5. INREC FIELDS=(15,5,6,6) ===> to restructure the input
file before feeding to sort.
6. OUTREC FIELDS=(1:1,20,21:C'PULLA',26:10Z,36:21,10) ===>
First 20 chars from input file followed by character PULLA
followed by 10 zeros followed by characters from 21 to 10
characters of input. the same can be codded as bellow.
OUTREC FIELDS=(1,20,C'PULLA',10Z,21,10).
7. SORT FIELDS=(1,5),EQUALS
SUM FIELDS=NONE ===> TO remove the duplicates in the key
field(1,5).

1) SORT FIELDS=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) OUTREC FIELDS=(7:20,4,C' FUTURE ',20,2,10,3,1Z,1,9,13,7, 24,57,TRAN=LTOU,6X'FF') This example illustrates how a fixed-length input data set can be sorted and reformatted for output. The SORTIN LRECL is 80 bytes. The reformatted output records are fixed length with a record size of 103 bytes. SOLRF (the IBM-supplied default) is in effect, so unless the SORTOUT LRECL is specified or available, it will automatically be set to the reformatted record length of 103. in the above example i have some doubts that a) sort fields=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) -what exactly it does and this fields related to output record fields or input record fields b)outrec used to refprmat the records after sorting that means could please reply me as soon as possible Thanks.
