Hi,
I am using an E15 exit routine in my sort step.There I need to call an assember routine(already coded,compiled ,linked and placed in the loadlib) to convert the date from one format to another.This date routine will take the P 5(packed and 5 length) data and it will convert the date into a readable format.


I am reading the SYRECORD in the rexx and trying to parse it to get the
5 P field in to a temp vaiable.Once I get the value( P 5) in the temp then I need to pass it to the assembler routine and I need to convert it into readable format.

Can any body give some light on this?
Thank you.

If your intention is to convert the date to a readable format then you don't have to use an Exit to do the conversion as sort can handle that quite easily. You can use the DT1 format for converting the date.

Check this link which shows an example to convert the date

hmm you are running a sort which has a rexx exit and now you want to call a assembler routine from rexx? wow ! As far as I know I don't think you can do that (2 layer exits)
