archup20, Well, you can use the same file for input and output if you do a SORT, but it's NOT really recommended since if something goes wrong you could lose your data set. If you really want to do it, a DFSORT job like the following would work. I assumed your input file has RECFM=FB and LRECL=80, b...

Retiring after 43+ years with IBM
Just a note to let everyone know I'll be retiring at the end of this month (5/31/2012). I've been with IBM for 43+ years (plus a couple of summers in college) and I've enjoyed my career immensely. I've especially enjoyed being able to help people use the DFSORT/ICETOOL functions I developed, over ma...

San, You haven't given a clear enough explanation of your requirement for anyone to help you. You show values with different numbers of decimal places ranging from 4 to 7. These must be "normalized" to be sorted. But you haven't told us the minimum or maximum number of decimal places your values can...

Anithavincy, If you want help, you'll need to do a better job of explaining exactly what it is you want to do. Is FIXEDBIN equivalent to ZD, PD, BI or something else? If you don't know, show a few values in hex. Please show an example of the records in your input file (relevant fields only) and what...

Are you asking how to use DFSORT to do the sorting? (If not, you can ignore the rest of this note.) If so, you need to show your sample records in hex so we can see what they actually look like. Identify the sort fields you want to use. Identify the null fields (are they X'00' fields or something el...

You need to give a clearer description of exactly what it is you want to do before anyone can help you. Please show an example of the records in each input file (relevant fields only) and what you expect for output. Explain the "rules" for getting from input to output. Give the starting position, le...
