The point of the post was that this was something weird which someone might
have experienced.
Anyway, here is what we see:
Input:
//SORT EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=(61,100,CH,A,265,2000,CH,A)
SUM FIELDS=NONE
END

Changing the SORT to use these parms instead:
SORT FIELDS=(61,100,CH,A,265,1940,CH,A)
makes the problem go away.

AS is often the case, without the sort statements, file attributes and
actual error messages, I doubt any of us are psychic enough to give a
meaningful answer.
