How to read records in reverse order in flat file?
I know we can do it by reading all records into an array....
Then read records in reverse order by using subscript or index
but can any body give me the exact code.

Answer Posted / narayan

You Can do it through JCL sort. Just add a seq number at the
last position of each record and sort it in descending order
of that seq number.
Here is the exacet code.
SORT FIELSD=COPY
OUTREC=(1,80,SEQNUM,4,ZD)
If your ps file is 80 byte long then this sort card a 4
digit seq num at 81 postion.
Now Sort the file on this seq num in descending
SORT FIELSD=(81,4,ZD,D)
