Answer / prakash

using inrec in sort utility , we can perform it.
//sysih dd *
sort fields = copy
inrec fields = (10:1,2, 13:2,2, 16:3,2)

(or)

using reference modification in cobol.

Answer / mdv

Two step process:

1.

Input file:

ABCDEF

//sysih dd *
sort fields = copy
outrec fields = (1,2,78X,2,2,78X,3,2,78X,4,2,78X,5,2,78X)

Step 1 output file will be:

ABBCCDDEEF

2.

//STEP EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//IN DD *
ABBCCDDEEF

//OUT DD DISP=OLD,DSN=file-FB_lrec/80
//TOOLIN DD *
RESIZE FROM(IN) TO(OUT) TOLEN(80)

OUT DD dataset will have the required.

Thanks

MDV:

If you are using this stmt
outrec fields = (1,2,78X,2,2,78X,3,2,78X,4,2,78X,5,2,78X)

Your LRECL for O/p File would 400

AB followed by 78 blanksBCfollowed by 78blanks....

Did you try the code which you placed there...

I'm not sure of 2nd step..

@Posted Person:
Can you exactly tell me what is your requirement so that i
can try to provide you a solution.

1rec: every 2 char's you want to write a records.

because As far as my knowledge there is no such utility to
get data in such a way. You have to write a cobol program
and use Joblib stmt. In order to accomplish this request.

If you want the cobol program let me know??
