Change your OUTFIL statement like this to display the sign as well. AFAIK s9(9)v99 would occupy only 11 bytes. OPTION COPY OUTFIL REMOVECC,NODETAIL, TRAILER1=('TOTAL=',TOT=(10,11,ZD,EDIT=(STTTTTTTTT.TT),SIGNS=(+,-)))

uthami, You can do file comparison using the JOIN feature available in SyncSort. But it's not quite clear what exactly you're expecting in output here. Please provide a few more details. 1)RECFM/LRECL of input as well as output files 2)Starting position and length of key field in the input files. 3)...

Hello,

I doubt whether you'll be able to achieve this in COBOL. What you're trying can easily be done in REXX.

Hello,

As MrSpock said, you CANNOT change the return code of a step once it's issued.
Try using SET command. I am not sure whether it will work or not.
AFAIK, the SET command is used to initialize symbolic parameters in JCL.

sts043,

You're welcome. Glad that it works fine for you :)
Can you tell me what the '99,8,ZD,SUB,+1,M11' is doing please?
It will subtract 1 from the sequence number for all records where you have a dot(.) at pos-21.
