264602186 FR 22.03.2004 SPAC

I need to eliminate the duplicates based on first 9 digits which starts from 1st position and based on date which starts from 14th position.

So, I need the output as

260071311 FR 28.02.2004 PAYMNT

261587935 FR 05.02.2004 PSA9A

264602186 FR 12.04.2004 SPAC
264602186 FR 07.04.2004 PSA2B
264602186 FR 22.03.2004 SPAC

How can I do this......

Phnai,

try these control cards
Code:

  OPTION EQUALS                             
  SORT FIELDS=(1,9,CH,A,14,10,CH,D)         
  SUM FIELDS=NONE                           


Hope this helps...

Cheers

Kolusu

Paneendra,

You can use the following DFSORT/ICETOOL job to do what you want:

Code:

//S1 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//IN DD DSN=...  input file
//OUT DD DSN=...  output file
//TOOLIN DD *
  SELECT FROM(IN) TO(OUT) ON(1,9,CH) ON(14,10,CH) FIRST
/*


Ravi,

With the SELECT operator of DFSORT's ICETOOL, FIRST will select the first record and LAST will select the last record. So in the example you show, you can use FIRST to get the AR record or LAST to get the FR record. The FIRSTDUP and LASTDUP parameters are also available to get the first duplicate record or the last duplicate record, respectively. For complete information on the SELECT operator of DFSORT's ICETOOL, see:

Hi All,
Thanks for your reply.

I used
SORT FIELDS=(1,9,ZD,A,14,10,CH,A)
SUM FIELDS=NONE

which gave me the required output.
