I have a vb file that I need to change a value from "N" to "Y" in position 22 when 1001 is the 7th position. This is without adding the 4bytes for VB.
94007G100R000 YY
94007G1001A00 NN
94007G1001P00 NN
94007G1001000 NN
the file is DCB=(EPIMS.DCB,RECFM=VB,LRECL=16384,BLKSIZE=16388)
Can DFSORT handle this and maintain the VB file format?

You can use DFSORT control statements something like this:
Code: Select all
OPTION COPY
INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(11,4,CH,EQ,C'1001'),OVERLAY=(26:C'Y'))
