Sorry, the formatting didn't retain how I had originally keyed it. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of George, William@FTB Sent: Friday, July 06, 2012 2:36 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: SYNCSORT - Save a data item for use in OUTREC output
Is there a means via SYNCSORT to save a data item found on the 1st input record and then have it placed on all subsequent output records. For example. 1. Input 1 - 07/06/2012 asfasdlfjl..... (save the date 07/06/2012 and not output the record) 2. Input 2 - poiutkjgfertqe.... Output - 07/06/2012 poiutkjgfertqe... That is, place the saved data item (date) someplace in the output record 3. Input 3 - (same as #2 and to the end of file) Thanks for any insights. ______________________________________________________________________ CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This email from the State of California is for the sole use of the intended recipient and may contain confidential and privileged information.
