Which SORT product do you have?

Look at JOINKEYS. Lots of examples here and in the manuals, on the internet, etc

ASAP is a term that should never be used on a forum

Hi Billy,

Say two files.

FileA

EmpNo EmpName
450 Arun
480 Dinesh
540 Tiffany

FileB

EmpNo EmpName
360 Manoj
480 Dinesh
600 Preethi

I want the mathed records in both the files to be copied in the output file.For this i need sort card.

What was the point of "reporting" my post?

Look in the DFSORT or SyncSort forums here for examples of JOINKEYS. You'rs is really simple, but solution depends on the product you are using, which you still haven't bothered to tell us.

If you'd taken the advice earlier, you'd have got to your solution already.

I want the SORT to be done both in DFSORT and SYNCSORT? Can i get the sort card for this?

Yes, just look do what I've mentioned twice already. Find the most simple JOINKEYS you can. That'll be yours.

Can I have an example for this? I want the sort card.

I want the sort card.

Unfortunately not always You can have what You want!
this is a help forum, not a provide me with a solution one

show what You have done, what problems You are facing, and somebody will be glad to help You.
Your want/gimme approach will not get You too much sympathy and even less help

what happened when You searched the forum ?
the examples are there and ready to run
yes... I checked

searching for joinkeys will provide what You want

Can anybody reply to my query if possible?
