is it possible to perform a balance-line between two sequential files with DFSORT, please?
I don't know what you mean by this. You need to explain what you want to do.
Please show an example of the records in each input file (relevant fields only) and what you expect for output. If input file1 can have duplicates within it, show that in your example. If input file2 can have duplicates within it, show that in your example. Explain the "rules" for getting from input to output. Give the RECFM and LRECL of the input files. Give the starting position, length and format of each relevant field. _________________ Frank Yaeger - DFSORT Development Team (IBM)

I'd like to read these 2 input files and produce an output file ''C'' containing only the matched keys, that is, only keys 5 and 6.
the RECFM and LRECL are not important but consider it as FB and 80, respectively. there are no duplicate records in either input file.

thanks a lot but we do not have icetool.
In your first post, you say you have DFSORT. In your latest post, you say you don't have ICETOOL. This makes no sense. If you have DFSORT, then you have ICETOOL. ICETOOL has been shipped with DFSORT since 1991. Have you actually tried using PGM=ICETOOL? If not, try it. If you have tried it and received an error message, show the error message you received. _________________ Frank Yaeger - DFSORT Development Team (IBM)

So your shop has ICETOOL and is paying for ICETOOL and you like ICETOOL, but some idiot at your shop decided you can't use it in production? Just curious if they gave you a reason? Considering DFSORT's ICETOOL is fully documented and supported and has been shipped with DFSORT since 1991, maybe it's time they reevaluated this policy. DFSORT's ICETOOL is extremely popular so it's difficult to understand why any shop would make that kind of ridiculous decision. _________________ Frank Yaeger - DFSORT Development Team (IBM)
