Hi,


I have a requirement to create a delimited output file.

File 1: has columns
Code:

      a       b       c       d       e

in file 2 :
my data order should be
Code:

      b;      d;      c;      e;      a

I can achieve the format of File2 from file1 by using OUTREC.
But i have one more condition. I need to include the column names on the first line and then the data should be copied.
So file 2 output will be in the format
Code:

Column1;Column2;column3;column4;column5
      b;      d;      c;      e;      a
      b;      d;      c;      e;      a
      b;      d;      c;      e;      a

Please advise on how i can achieve this

Thanks in advance

anaik100,

Try this. I assumed that your each field is 7 bytes in length.

Code:

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=SORT             
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*               
//SORTIN   DD *
----+----1----+----2----+----3----+----4----+----5
      a       b       c       d       e
//SORTOUT  DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *                       
  SORT FIELDS=COPY           
  OUTFIL REMOVECC,
  BUILD=(08,07,C';',
         24,07,C';',
         16,07,C';',
         32,07,C';',
         01,07,80:X),                           
  HEADER1=('COLUMN1;COLUMN2;COLUMN3;COLUMN4;COLUMN5;')
