Hi,

Say, a file has input records like this :

Select all

1111abc
1111bcd
1122abc
1122bcd
1122cde

Is it possible to assign the SEQNUM as shown below?

Select all

1111abc 1
1111bcd 2
1122abc 1
1122bcd 2
1122cde 3

Please suggest.

Thanks.

Try this:

Select all

//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=(1,7,CH,A)
OUTREC FIELDS=(1,7,12:SEQNUM,1,ZD,RESTART=(1,4))
/*

It does not work the way I expected..........It is assigning 1 to all the records !

Any other alternative please?

Thanks.

Did you try with the sample data you provided in your previous post, or with different test data? I ran with your exact data above and got the expected output.

Alissa, my apologies........

I did not change it from INREC to OUTREC and that is why I wasn't getting the result.......... :mrgreen:

Thanks a lot..........cool.
