Using SORT utility we can split the file. Sort card will be
as:

//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFILE FNAMES=(SORTOUT1,SORTOUT2,SORTOUT3),SPLIT
/*

If there are 10 records in input and these have to be split
across three files SORTOUT1, SORTOUT2 and SORTOUT3
respectively. After running the Job using this sort card,
record1 would be stored in SORTOUT1, record2 in SORTOUT2,
record3 in SORTOUT3, record4 in SORTOUT1 and so on.

I want to JCL sort for Non-COMP and COMP-3 fields SORT FIELDS=(1,5,A,6,11,A,12,11,A,19,1,A,20,1,A),FORMAT=BI,EQUALS Length of comp bytes is 11 bytes which start at 6byte and 12 byte considering 11 bytes in comp-3 is 6 bytes. Can anyone tell if the above sort work SORT FIELDS=(1,5,A,6,6,A,12,6,A,19,1,A,20,1,A),FORMAT=BI,EQUALS does not works OK
