Max,
Here is the trick job I was talking about. Basically you resize the record
into 4 byte chunks and use 4 IFTHEN statements to space out the record.
This job will work for any LRECL 1-(assuming you adjust the pos and
lengths) and if you want to handle LR
Sri,
your view is always important to us.
The fix for 99 is not so difficult.
Please "light us" with the trick.
:D

Massimo,
Peter mentioned that the input has a 2-byte zoned decimal "data length"
value which identifies the number of SIGNIFICANT columns. So the maximum
value that a 2 byte zoned decimal can hold is 99. Your job fails as the
arithmetic ends with a negat

this could be a more useful version:

Peter,
I don't know how long is your record, assuming it's 80 and that the LL
field in H record is between 1 and 99, this could be a solution:
//SYSIN DD *
INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=GROUP,BEGIN=(1,1,CH,EQ,C'H'),
PUSH=(81:3,2))
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,1,CH,EQ,C'H'),
BUILD=(1,8
I have a fixed-record-length data file which has "subsections" starting with a
"data characteristics" record (call it a "subsection header"). One of the
fields in the "subsection header" is a 2-byte zoned decimal "data length" value
which identifies the number of SIGNIFICANT columns in the "dat
