Hi,

Can we modify the follwing piece of code :-

//SORT1 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=Input.File,DISP=SHR
//SORTOUT DD DSN=Output.File,...
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL FILES=OUT,TRAILER1=(1:COUNT),REMOVECC,NODETAIL
/*

so that the Return Code of step SORT1 is not zero when count is less or equal to two ?

Your post has been split as you should not be tagging onto an old post and your requirement is somewhat different.

Now, what does your manual say?

Have you searched the *sort fora for NULLOFL?

Thanks for all the help. I used the following Code :-

//JS020 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DISP=SHR,DSN=WELLS.SORTIN
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//TOOLIN DD *
COUNT FROM(SORTIN) LOWER(1500) RC4
/*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
