Hi,
        Is there a native z/OS utility that would take in a file of the
following VB format (for example):

First VB record = |rdw1|record1-40 bytes|
Next  VB record = |rdw2|record2-200 bytes|
Last  VB record = |rdw3|record3-10 bytes|

        and output a file in the following FB LRECL=80 format:

First FB record = |rdw1|record1-40bytes|rdw2|record2-(1st 32bytes)|
Next  FB record = |record2-(bytes 33-112)|
Next  FB record = |record2- (bytes 113-192)|
Last  FB record = |record2- (bytes 193-200)|rdw3|record3-10
bytes|padding to 80 char|

In other words, squash the VB records with their RDW fields into spanned
FB records of a given length.

Thanks in advance,
George Sproull
