Pls post the correct question. I am not sure what you mean
by COBOL file, is it PS or VSAM or Tape etc etc? If you
want last 100 records of a file use below SORT JCL, and if
required that output file can be read in your COBOL.
//S1 EXEC
PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD
SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD
SYSOUT=*
//IN DD DSN=... input
file
//OUT DD DSN=... output file
//TOOLIN DD
*
SUBSET FROM(IN) TO(OUT) KEEP INPUT LAST(100)
