Hi Team,

I have an input file having records as below. I need to exclude a particular string of length 5 starting from position 5 and ending at position 10 in each row without touching the trailer record. Also need to delete the header from the file.

Input:
Header
12345678910119999
12345678910190900
Trailer record

Expected output:
12340119999
12340190900
Trailer record

Could anyone please suggest how to achieve this using DFSORT.

Srishti Rawat,

Assuming your input has RECFM=FB and LRECl=80, use the following untested JCL which will give you the desired results.

Code:

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=SORT                         
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*                           
//SORTIN   DD *
Header
12345678910119999
12345678910190900
Trailer
//SORTOUT  DD SYSOUT=*                           
//SYSIN    DD *             
  OPTION COPY,SKIPREC=1
  INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,7,CH,NE,C'Trailer'),
         BUILD=(1,4,11,70,6X))
