 Posted: Wed Mar 02, 2005 12:49 am Post subject: Compare data in two files using REXX |
 |
|
Hi Friends,
I am new to the REXX programming, I want to compare two GDGs
say GDG 'A' and GDG 'B'.
| Code: | A B
------ --------
A1 a A1 b
A3 a A2 b
A4 a A3 b
A4 b |
now using GDG 'B' i have to write a new file say FILE1 dropping all the rows corresponding to that in GDG 'A' by comparing only the values in the first column.
That is in FILE1 i need to have only A2 b.
is this possible using REXX.
Please let me know
Thanks
Arun |

arunkumar_e,
Was there any specific reason why you chose rexx? It can be done by utilities like Sort.
Let me know if you are interested
Thanks
Kolusu

arunkumar_e,
Please provide me with the following details.
1. What is the LRECL/RECFM of gdg 'A' & gdg 'B'?
2. What is the position and format of the key to be compared?
3. Does any of the files have duplicates?
4. What is the default sort product at your shop?
Thanks
Kolusu
