Suggest you ask Syncsort Support.

I would suggest you get the manual out and start reading about the keywords. Experiment with some test data. Is the "ICETOOL" that you are using the DFsort version or the SYNCSORT version? If SYNCSORT then possibly no conversion is required but check with the vendor as suggested by DikDude for all 3 queries.

Nic
