Excellent solution!
Just tried it using original data supplied.
I will save this example should I ever get such an unusual format of input
data.
Almost unchanged after JCL snippet Cut&Paste...

records

Minoru Massaki,
It is quite simple to get the last 8 bytes from a variable length file
without an exit. You simply need to use JFY to push the contents to the
right and then pick the last 8 bytes and then use another JFY to push the
contents to the left and there by achieving the desired results.
I assumed that your Input VB file has an LRECL=80. You can adjust the
length if your input file has a different length.
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DISP=SHR,Your Input VB 80 byte file.
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,
BUILD=(1,04, $ RDW
5,76,JFY=(SHIFT=RIGHT))), $ SHIFT DATA TO RIGHT
IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,
BUILD=(01,04, $ RDW
73,08, $ LAST 8 BYTES
05,76,JFY=(SHIFT=LEFT))) $ SHIFT DATA TO LEFT
OUTFIL VLTRIM=C' ' $ REMOVE TRAIL SPACES
