Norbert, You are right that PARSE in DFSORT is available as of April 2006. However please note that with DFSORT V2R1, you can now use up to 1000 parsed fields (%0-%999) with the PARSE function; the previous limit was 100 parsed fields (%0-%99).
Let me know if you need assistance in coding/optimizing the job.
