You can use OUTFIL's SPLIT parameter to put the first
record into OUTPUT1, the second record into OUTPUT2, the
third record into OUTPUT1, the fourth record into OUTPUT2,
and so on until you run out of records. SPLIT splits the
records one at a time among the data sets specified by
FNAMES. The following statements split the records between
two OUTFIL data sets:
OPTION COPY
OUTFIL FNAMES=(Op1.op2,op3,op4),SPLIT
Similarly, OUTFIL's SPLITBY=n parameter splits the records
n at a time among the data sets specified by FNAMES. The
following statements split the records four at a time
between three OUTFIL data sets:
OPTION COPY
OUTFIL FNAMES=(OUT1,OUT2,OUT3),SPLITBY=4
