Internal sort is handled by a cobol program using i/p file,work file and o/p file.
Internal sort is when you do any processing you need to recompile the cobol program
External sort is performed through jcl where you provide SORTIN and SORTOUT datasets and its easier to perform this sort as any changes, will require only submitting the jcl.

If a field is declared as a comp-3 field and if we want to sort a dataset based on this field, then how will the sort card be??? e.g- if we want to sort by a field which is defined as a PIC X(5) then we will mention - sort fields=(1,5,ch,a). Likewise if a field is defined as PIC S9(10)COMP-3 then in this case how will the sort field be defined (because in this case a sign is also involved)???
