In ISPF: If you have National Language Support, the order in which your data
will be collated could depend on the status of your HEX mode. If your HEX mode status is ON, your data will be ordered according to its hexadecimal representation. If your HEX mode status is OFF, you are a National Language Support user and your installation has defined a special collating sequence table, your data will be ordered according to the sequence specified in the collating sequence table.

I need to sort hex data in ISPF and batch. I have tried a couple of variations but the x'A' - x'F' always go to the top of the sorted list. I really would like 0-9, x'A' - x'F' I have not found on the ISPF sort command a hex option for sorting. And I am not sure what control cards I can use in batch sort to make it happen. Any one willing to point me in the right direction? If not, I will write a sort process in REXX. *********************************************************************** Bear Stearns is not responsible for any recommendation, solicitation, offer or agreement or any information about any transaction, customer account or account activity contained in this communication. *********************************************************************** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
