Calling all DF/SORT experts: Is it possible to parse a field from the
input record (which floats, of course, otherwise we wouldn't be
parsing), and use the located field as the sort sequence?
For example:
OUTFIL FNAMES=SORTOUT,
PARSE=(%22=(STARTAFT=C'something',ENDBEFR=C'else)',FIXLEN=10)),
BUILD=(001:%22, the parse field
011:1,120) other stuff I want
SORT FIELDS=(%22,CH,A) I wish to sort on %22
Apologies in advance if I failed to locate the capability in the manual.
