Substring

Post by Rajeshk.sakthivel » Mon Jul 18, 2011 5:06 am

Hi all,

It would be really helpful if someone could direct me on how to approach this wierd requirement..

Input File..
ABCDEFGHI...ABC
AAAAAAAAA...ABC
ABCDEFGHI...DEF
ABCDEFGHI...GHI
BBBBBBBBB...ABC

Output File..
ABCDEFGHI...ABC
ABCDEFGHI...DEF
ABCDEFGHI...GHI

I need to extract all the records in which string len (3) from position 13, occurs atleast once anywhere between column 1-9.

I tried something like this,

INCLUDE=(1,9,SS,EQ,13,3,CH)

but it doesn't seem to work...

I am still trying to figure out... Can someone help me with this?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Rajesh

You can use these DFSORT control statements:

Code: Select all

  OPTION COPY                         
  INCLUDE FORMAT=CH,                  
    COND=(13,3,CH,EQ,1,3,CH,OR,       
          13,3,CH,EQ,2,3,CH,OR,       
          13,3,CH,EQ,3,3,CH,OR,       
          13,3,CH,EQ,4,3,CH,OR,       
          13,3,CH,EQ,5,3,CH,OR,       
          13,3,CH,EQ,6,3,CH,OR,       
          13,3,CH,EQ,7,3,CH)
