Can I copy the FB (fixed Block) record length file to a VB
(variable Block)record length file and Vise Versa? If Yes
then how ? is that thru one of the JCL utility ?

Answer Posted / sathya

yes we can do using sort utility,
//SORTTA EXEC
PGM=SORT
//SYSIN DD *
SORT
FIELDS=COPY
OUTREC FIELDS=(1:5,4096),CONVERT
/*

//SORTIN DD DSN=…,DISP=SHR
//SORTOUT DD DSN=…
//SYSOUT DD
SYSOUT=*
//
The CONVERT control statement is used to convert the
File format from VB to FB.
