Hi Sri et al., I have 2 files that I would like to compare, file "A" has
50000 records, and file "B" only a subset of that - maybe 1000 records.
They have the same key (pos 1, len 24), but are not unloaded in key order.
The records are 2524 bytes long (24 byte key + 2500 bytes data).

I know I can sort them in one step to fix that problem, but then I want to
produce a file "C" of only the mismatches:
* Records in A, not in B
* Records in B, not in A
* Records in A with matching keys to B, but the data in A does not match B

I have done this before in CA Easytrieve, but this client does not have
that. Is there a way to do this in a SORT step?

Thank you and best regards,
