Is it possible to use sort to exclude records from file A based on File B.

Here is the scenario

File A (key is first 4 characters. contains duplicate records. can have upto 100 duplicate record for same key)

AAAA 234
AAAA 123
BBBB 234
CCCC 123
DDDD 567

File B

AAAA
BBBB

Output should contain just

CCCC 123
DDDD 567



Thanks
Sreejith

sreejith,

The following DFSORT/ICETOOL job will give you the desired results.

Code:

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL                               
//TOOLMSG  DD SYSOUT=*                                     
//DFSMSG   DD SYSOUT=*                                     
//IN1      DD *                                           
AAAA 234                                                   
AAAA 123                                                   
BBBB 234                                                   
CCCC 123                                                   
DDDD 567                                                   
//IN2 DD *                                                 
AAAA                                                       
BBBB                                                       
//OUT   DD SYSOUT=*                                       
//T1    DD DSN=&&T1,UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(TRK,(5,5)),         
//         DISP=(MOD,PASS)                                 
//TOOLIN DD *                                             
  COPY FROM(IN2) TO(T1) USING(CTL2)                       
  COPY FROM(IN1) TO(T1) USING(CTL1)                       
  SPLICE FROM(T1) TO(OUT) ON(1,4,CH) WITH(1,10) WITHALL - 
  KEEPNODUPS KEEPBASE USING(CTL3)                                   
//CTL1CNTL DD *                                           
  OUTREC FIELDS=(1,10,4X)                                 
//CTL2CNTL DD *                                           
  OUTREC FIELDS=(1,4,6X,1,4)                               
//CTL3CNTL DD *                                           
  OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT,INCLUDE=(11,4,CH,EQ,C' '),OUTREC=(1,10)
/*                                                         


Hope this helps...

Cheers

You did not specify whether you are using SYNCSORT or DFSORT.
If you have SYNCSORT for z/OZ version 1.2, you can use new JOIN feature.
