Narayan if we use your sort card we will get records in
reverse order but along with sequence numbers in cols 81-
84. You are not trimming the seq numbers
Stp1:
SORT FIELSD=COPY
OUTREC=(1,80,SEQNUM,4,ZD)
stp2:
SORT FIELSD=(81,4,ZD,D)
Outrec=(1,80)
The output file will have the records in reverse order.
