Internal sort is manual sort use in cobol.
external sort is in jcl using inbuild program name called sort
ex
//step1 exec pgm=sort
synatx for internal sort
sort/merge sortfile on ascending/descending
key1/key2/key3,using file1/file2/input procedure is
section-1 giving file3/file4/output procedure is section-2
nobody can write syntax more than this.it is combination.

Our issue is there seems to be a disconnect, or no link, between our SELECT statement and our SD. We had SELECT SORT-FILE and SELECT SORT-FILE ASSIGN TO SORTWRK. ASSIGN TO SORTWRK1 SORTWRK2 SORTWRK3 SORTWRK4. with SD SORT_FILE RECORD CONTAINS 7833 CHARACTERS. In either case, at run time, the system ignored our SORTWRK# DD statements and allocated 16 sort works with the SORTWK## naming convention. Any ideas why the system does not recognize the connection? We do not even need the SORTWRK DD statements. Thanks
