Hi,

I would like to do a sort such that the order of input records shouldn't be changed. (copying one file data into anoterh file).

Thanks,
Hariprasad.K

read in the DFSORT manuals about the COPY function

or if You are really SORTING and want to preserve the sequence for records with the same <sort key> about the OPTION EQUALS

or use a copy utility such as IEB/ICEGENER

Hariprasad K,

Use the following DFSORT JCL

Select all

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=Your input file,DISP=SHR
//SORTOUT DD DSN=Your output file,
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
// SPACE=(CYL,(X,Y),RLSE)
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
//*
