Hi all,
is it possible to "concatenate" strings with different lengths?
My input:
ab_dd99_rjiedc
ab_dd88_nshe
ab_dd33_mandh
ab_dd33_majfzr
My output should be:
ab_dd99_rjiedc_&LYR4&LMON&LDAY.txt
ab_dd88_nshe_&LYR4&LMON&LDAY.txt
ab_dd33_mandh_&LYR4&LMON&LDAY.txt
ab_dd33_majfzr_&LYR4&LMON&LDAY.txt
Please give me an advice how to do that!
Thanks in advance.
Is it possibile to do it with DFSORT?

You can use a DFSORT job like the following to do what you asked for. I assumed your input file has RECFM=FB and LRECL=80, but the job can be changed appropriately for other attributes.
Code: Select all
//S1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
ab_dd99_rjiedc
ab_dd88_nshe
ab_dd33_mandh
ab_dd33_majfzr
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC BUILD=(1,80,JFY=(SHIFT=LEFT,
TRAIL=(C'_&LYR4&LMON&LDAY.txt')))
