If a field is declared as a comp-3 field and if we want to
sort a dataset based on this field, then how will the sort
card be???
e.g- if we want to sort by a field which is defined as a
PIC X(5) then we will mention - sort fields=(1,5,ch,a).
Likewise if a field is defined as PIC S9(10)COMP-3 then in
this case how will the sort field be defined (because in
this case a sign is also involved)???

I have a cobol db2 program(PGM A) where other program (PGM B) will call this program and passes some 50 fields data to PGM A. PGM A has some layout in which it receives the data from PGM B. And this layout has been copied in the linkage section pf PGM A. After getting the data, PGM A writes the data in a flat file in the same layout which it receives from PGM B. PGM B is a simple COBOL pgm. Please provide a JCL to run these programs.
