No developer would be arrogant enough :-) to consider themselves faultless. And knowing Sri Hari as I do I doubt he'd want you to keep the solution to yourself. And we all learn by building on each others' solutions and ideas.
Which is why *I* for one have been socialising my "answers" for almost 30 years. Others likewise and some even longer. However what we have here is a discussion that has little structure now. :-( Cheers, Martin Martin Packer, zChampion, Principal Systems Investigator, Worldwide Banking Center of Excellence, IBM +44-7802-245-584 email: martin_pac...@uk.ibm.com Twitter / Facebook IDs: MartinPacker Blog: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/mydeveloperworks/blogs/MartinPacker From: "Sankaranarayanan, Vignesh" <vignesh.v.sankaranaraya...@marks-and-spencer.com> To: IBM-MAIN@listserv.ua.edu Date: 18/04/2014 00:40 Subject: Re: Forget: Sorting CSV data that begins with an IP address Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@listserv.ua.edu> Ok .. Just a thought though .. when I get a solution from a DFSORT developer himself, I can blindly believe that it will work; as long as I had made my requirements clear, which I had.
