I am almost ashamed to admit that I can't solve my own problem (must be my old age), but here is what I need to do and what I have done so far:

(1) I have a FB file with an LRECL of 200
(2) I would like to pass this file through a SORT step with the output including a header record of the file count and literal strings
(3) Also - I need the output file LRECL expanded to 500 bytes by padding spaces on each record.

I have done the following to create an individual record with the file count and my literal string. This works fine.

Code:

  SORT FIELDS=(COPY)                                   
  OUTFIL REMOVECC,NODETAIL,                           
    TRAILER1=(COUNT=(M11,LENGTH=15),'RETAILSTYLE00145'


What I can not figure out (and I have been trying!!) is how to expand the records to 500 bytes??

Any help?

Code:

  SORT FIELDS=(COPY)
  OUTFIL REMOVECC,NODETAIL,
     TRAILER1=(COUNT=(M11,LENGTH=15),'RETAILSTYLE00145',
     OUTREC=(500:X)

That works fine for expanding the record that is created for the count. But how to do this with all of the detail records?

Remove NODETAIL and add OVERLAY=(500:X). Here's the DFSORT job:

Code:

//S1    EXEC  PGM=ICEMAN                                             
//SYSOUT    DD  SYSOUT=*                                             
//SORTIN DD DSN=...  input file (FB/200)                                 
//SORTOUT DD DSN=...  output file (FB/500)       
//SYSIN    DD    *                                                   
  SORT FIELDS=(COPY)                                                 
  OUTFIL REMOVECC,                                                   
    OVERLAY=(500:X),                                                 
    TRAILER1=(COUNT=(M11,LENGTH=15),'RETAILSTYLE00145')
