IBM Mainframe Forum

Good evening!
I have field in file position 311 to 350.Field text may be wrong number(connection mode) or left voice(connection mode) or conversation with customer(connection mode) or
left message(connection mode)

i want to find the string (connection code) - with brackets in position 311 to 350 and place string in position 511 to 560.

I used below syntax but not working.

Sort fields=copy
inrec findrep=(in=c'(connection mode)',startpos=301,endpos=350,out=c'connection mode',startpos=511,endpos560)

Please help me out regarding this

You need to paste the code from your emulator, otherwise we just chase your typos.

And please use Code tags when pasting to preserve proper spacing. Use PostReply for Code tag usage.

Not a JCL question but a sort question. I assume a DFSort question so moved to that part of the forum. If it is not DFSort please specify which sort prouct you are using.

Sorry to post in JCL.it is sort.
and sorry for the typos.Here is the syntax i used.



i want to find the string in the string in the position 301 to 350 and place in the position 510 to 560.

String may be like this


Please help me out.

Code'd

FINDREP changes in place. You can't make it do something different by extending the syntax yourself.

It is not clear exactly what you want to do. With a field-type of SS you can code an IF statement to know that your sub-string exists and then use a BUILD statement to generate a new record.

If that doesn't get it for you, you'll have to post a better explanation, including some sample input data and expected output.

Thank you for reply.

Here is my input data. 301 postion to 350


i want to find the (connection mode) in the position 301 to 350 and place in the position 510 to 560 position.

Coded - again

Thanks very much.it is working fine.i ussd SS and build.

Good to know that you have arrived at the solution but...please use the code tags when posting code, data, jcl and anything else that you find on your screen. Search the forum to find out how.

Sure Nic.Thanks once again.
