You can use INREC, OUTREC or OUTFIL OUTREC. The exact syntax will depend on whether you are working with FL or VL records. For FL records the following INREC statement should do what you want:
INREC FIELDS=(C'AAA',1,n) where "n" is the length of the record For VL records you will need the following INREC statement: INREC FIELDS=(C'AAA',1) INREC works on the records as they are read in, OUTREC and OUTFIL OUTREC work on records on the way out. If you want to use OUTREC simply change INREC to OUTREC. If you want OUTFIIL OUTREC change INREC FIELDS to OUTFIL OUTREC.
