Hi,

I am trying to insert a new field value to a file.
I am doing this using OUTREC statement in the sort card. Find below the scenario:

Input File : AAAABBB
My desired output file: AAAABBB-1

The '-1' field is of S9(09) comp in the referred cobol program.

I have searched this forum but I have not got any idea of how to do that because I have not used much of sort techniques so far.

Please let me know how to accomplish this.

Thanks in advance.
Vivek G

search on outrec - modification; look at the manuals.

this link will give you an idea of which parms and the syntax that you need. then you can code your own sort.
