Peter, Looking at your note again. I suspect that DFSORT's relatively new IFTRAIL function of OUTFIL can help you do what you want more easily (I suspect it wasn't yet available when I showed you the SEQNUM trick).
For complete details on DFSORT's IFTRAIL, see: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=114&uid=isg3T7000242 Frank Yaeger - DFSORT Development Team (IBM) - yae...@us.ibm.com Specialties: JOINKEYS, FINDREP, WHEN=GROUP, ICETOOL, Symbols, Migration => DFSORT/MVS is on the Web at http://www.ibm.com/storage/dfsort ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
