Hi,

I am having a Flat file of record length 230. I need to select the records which has the characters of 'ABCQID' in 1 to 50 positions.

I am tried os using Simple Find command But i am failing in to search only in 1 to 50 characters... It is searching the full length....

Please let me know if there any option....

Have a nice day

U can specify columns also in find command.
F '<SEARCH-KEY>' 1 50

Yes.. I set the option as

BNDS 1 50

and search for the String as F '<SEARCH STRING>'.

It searches only in the position 1 to 50....

Thanks for your reply

Have a nice day
