Sort is simple and doesn't require to use OE. And it doesn't need knowing switches like -r etc and sort is well documented unlike the OE. Yes I know we all want to show off talents that are gotten over a wood fire and bubbly cauldrons. But for something like this the KISS methodology is never w

Re: Lines per page - IDCAMS output

If we want to delete the skip to channel 1 then I think you want to omit it not include. However if the idea is to make you own decision on where to skip to channel 1 you would have to insert at a later time the skip to channel one and the header yourself. Ed -

Re: Lines per page - IDCAMS output

I have some Perl code at work which does "things" with IDCAMS output. I'm at home. It's 01:00 local time. I need to learn how to sleep again. I hate being old. And yes, I do consider the alternative to be better any more. Of course, as far as reading my Perl code is concerned, all I can say is th

Re: Lines per page - IDCAMS output

Hmmm - I'm not altogether sure that I'm comfortable with IDCAMS and "efficient" being mentioned in the same sentence. Be that as it may, for large runs, I did find that assembler invocations of the CSI were significantly faster than REXX doing likewise. Horses for courses - REXX is fine for quick j
