>>Is there a DFSORT or ICETOOL statement where the output contains headers plus a line saying 'No selected records found' if nothing selected is found?
Elardus, It can be done , however I need a few more details. 1. How are you selecting the data? (using INCLUDE/OMIT COND or OUTFIL INCLUDE/OMIT ?) 2. What is the LRECL and RECFM of the dataset? 3. Does the header already exist in the input file and is it the first 2 records in the file? or can this be generated?

Something like this: User id User Name Dflt Group Created Last Used -------- -------------------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ABC001 ABC USER ABCDEF 2000-09-29 2017-05-29 But when nothing is found I would like to say this: User id User Name Dflt Group Created Last Used -------- -------------------- ---------- ---------- ---------- No ids found. This is similar to zSecure where you can say: newlist rds name=GRP, header=no, dd=grp, title='Users in group ABCDEF',empty='No users found in group ABCDEF', ... For zSecure, you either get a list of results or a statement that report has no selected results. Is there something for DFSORT/ICETOOL? Many thanks in advance for your kind help!
