zeroes are inserted at end of each record in a PS file (decimal format).
No duplicates are there in input file.

for example:

Input file has record lenght is 10 and record format=FB.

Output file has record lenght is 15 and record format=FB.

Input file:
-----------
1234567890
2345754332
2234566777
2234556767

output file:
-----------
123456789000000
234575433200000
223456677700000
223455676700000

Hi,

Another way of achieving it !

mf_user,

Did you read the requirements properly? The input lrecl is only 10 bytes and since you are trying to change the 11th byte you would get an error FIELD BEYOND MAXIMUM RECORD LENGTH. secondly you used 11 in the change operator , so it would create a 21 output lrecl when OP only wanted 15 byte records. please understand the question and test your solutions before you post them. Posting incorrect solutions will only cause confusion

Thanks

And further why would you want to show a more complex solution when a simpler solution has already been posted. Are you trying to show how to do things badly?
