Hi

I want to find the record no. of a particular record.

Consider there are n number of records in a ps file. In any one of the record in position 1 and of lenth 3 a word "SYS" will be there.
That corresponding record no. should be written to output file.

Input and Output are fixed length files of lrecl 80.

Input:

Code:
11111111111
22222222222
SYS33333333
44444444444
55555555555

Output:

Code:
3


Thanks

You can use a DFSORT job like the following to do what you asked for. I used 1 digit for the record number as shown in your example. If appropriate, you can use more digits by changing the length of the SEQNUM field.

Code:

//S1    EXEC  PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT    DD  SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
11111111111
22222222222
SYS33333333
44444444444
55555555555
/*
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD    *
  OPTION COPY                                           
  INREC OVERLAY=(15:SEQNUM,1,ZD)                       
  OUTFIL INCLUDE=(1,3,CH,EQ,C'SYS'),BUILD=(1:15,1,80:X)
/*
