It looks like she was using the term KVV to mean the same thing I was referring to. I had just never heard it called that. I think your understanding was fairly close. I was getting hung up on the terminology. Sorry for that. The check is on the OPEN. I'm not from DFSMS but this is my

Sorry, I replied too quickly - Your statement is correct. In the context of the actual variable record (including the RDW), it DOES mean 1 to 4 and 17 to end. Apologies. Peter -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On Behalf Of Farley, Peter x23353 Sent: Monday,

NO! (1,4,17) means "Keep positions 1-4 and 13 to end"!!! In SORT control cards for variable records, positions after 1-4 are PLUS 4 from the "record" position. Column 13 of your data (AFTER THE RDW BYTES which are invisible in a BROWSE or EDIT session) is "17" in the SORT control card (13 +

OK, so with BUILD=(1,4,17) this must mean "Keep positions 1-4 and 17-end). This works. Thanks! From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List on behalf of Farley, Peter x23353 <031df298a9da-dmarc-requ...@listserv.ua.edu> Sent: Monday, June 27, 2022 1:35 PM To:

Frank, Peter provided an excellent example of stripping the desired characters. For Variable length copies, you just need to specify the START position of the field you want to write from(Please account for the RDW) and you don't have to specify the length as under the covers SORT will figure

Sort input control cards (DFSORT or SYNCSORT): OPTION COPY INREC BUILD=(1,4,(5+X)) Where (5+X) is a constant equal to 5 plus the X characters you want to strip -- e.g. to strip the first 8 characters X=8 so (5+8) = 13, so " INREC BUILD=(1,4,13)". Another way to calculate the position to

I know this is very basic, but it's been a while... I want to copy a file where each record in the new file omits the first X number of characters from the source file, but includes everything else. Both files are variable length files. I imagine sort (I have IBM DFSORT) is the appropriate
