The best option is to used File-Aid processing options.
If not,
1. Use SORT FIELDS=COPY, STOPAFT=1 to get the first record.
2. Insert line numbers in the file using SEQNUM fucntion of
SORT. Then, do a SORT FIELDS on this line number in
descending order, save it a temp file.
3. Use SORT FIELDS=COPY, STOPAFT=1 on this temp file to get
the last record.
