Please suggest how to acheive this through sord card ?

Post by sangan » Tue Jul 19, 2011 2:09 pm

I have one query regarding filtering of specified records from file.

For example :

i/p File

23RAM5675ABCD
RAM5678LKHDFG
79PDIOSMDFFSD
HKJASL689RAM9

o/p

23RAM5675ABCD
RAM5678LKHDFG
HKJASL689RAM9

I need to search for RAM in a records-file which can be at any position and include those in o/p file. Please suggest how to acheive this through sord card ?

Regards,
Sangan

Try this:

Code: Select all

INCLUDE COND=(1,??,SS,EQ,C'RAM')
where "??" can be replaced by LRECL or the length you want to search in.
