Michael, Not really, once you get the Dataset name, you can open it in EXTENDED mode and write the output. However, you are still limited by the LRECL and RECFM of the ddname. Since you are splitting the records, I guess all of them have the same length Thanks, Kolusu DFSORT Development IBM Corporation ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
