Hello,
I am sure I am using right syntax but am unable to understand why it is failing with syntax error. Can you help me out please?

Code:

//STEP0002 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL                                     
//TOOLMSG  DD  SYSOUT=*

Sorry I found it - it was a missing 'comma' before OUTREC statement.

relaxing,

Your Second select statement does not make any sense, you are selecting the records validating the contents at pos 1 for 14 bytes and pos 128 for 18 bytes. But when writing out you are picking the contents from pos 15 for 14 bytes. Is that what you really want?

And You can simplify your code with the following. I am just showing you the first select statement. Always test for positive conditions instead of negative conditions. You only want to pick records other than records which have H, U, E and X , so use them in OMIT condition. Since you are interested in picking just the contents from pos 15 and padding the rest with spaces , we actually trim down the input to just 14 bytes and sort it.
Code:

//TOOLIN DD  *                                                   
  SELECT FROM(INFILE1) TO(OUTFIL1) ON(01,14,CH) FIRST USING(CTL1)
/*                                                               
//CTL1CNTL DD *                                                 
  OMIT COND=(1,1,SS,EQ,C'H,U,E,X')   
  INREC BUILD=(15,14)
  OUTFIL FNAMES=OUTFIL1,OVERLAY=(72:X)
//*


PS: You need to use code instead of quote

Kolusu, thanks for pointing out..I was concentration on the first and did not look at the second - but I noticed once I had fixed the first issue. Sorry for the confusion..
And thanks for the additional comments. I will introduce OMIT as you suggested.
