I believe that this may accomplish your objective:
//SORTBABY EXEC PGM=ICEMAN,REGION=31M,
// PARM=('DSPSIZE=MAX,DYNALLOC=(3390,6),EQUALS,HIPRMAX=OPTIMAL,LIST',
// 'SIZE=MAX,MSGPRT=ALL,VLSHRT')
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DISP=SHR,DSN=INPDS.FB80(MYCLIST)
//CLIST DD DISP=SHR,DSN=OUTPDS.VB255(MYCLIST)
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL FNAMES=CLIST,
BUILD=(73,08,01,72),FTOV
Cheers,

Subject: FB to VB can DFsort do this?
I want to take a numbered FB 80 dataset (member) and convert it to a VB 255
format dataset, each line will really be 80 bytes long.
I know how to reformat the line numbers 73-80 to the start of each line, and I
can add the RDW (54 00 hex) before that, but what must I do to get the VB part?
Will sort still think the output dataset is FB?
Is there a keyword I need to use, much like when going from VB to FB?
I don't have a place to run this right now, hence the question.
