Hi members,

I have an problem while sorting a files.
Example:-
I have 2 files in sortin and each file is having a header and data.I have to sort data records only not the headers.
My situation is If I do sort both headers are coming either top or bottom..
Can some one give the way how to do the sort after each Header I have to sort the data records.

Input :

SORTIN -
File1: Header1
data recs
File2: Header2
data recs

Desired Output:

SORTOUT-
Header1
data recs(sorted)
Header2
data recs(sorted)

Thanx in advance

--Pappu

Pappu,

The examples Kolusu points to assume that there's something in your Header records that identify them as Header records (e.g. 'HDR' in 1-3). Is that the case?
