Sort is a utility using which we can sort a VSAM/ NON-VSAM
file in a perticuler order i.e Assending or Discendin.
Internal Sort - It is a process to sort the file using JCL
External Sort - It is a process to sort the file using
cobol program .
Sort Utilites
sort INREC " select the fields then sort then"
sort OUTREC " sort the fields then select the records out
of them
Include " include a perticuler record
omit " except the perticuler record"
Sum fields = NONE to elemintae duplicate records
sort fields = (start postion , number of characters , type,
order )
