Did you searched the KC? I did that (go to www.ibm.com and search for 'DFSORT day of week') and there are some useful hits: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.1.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.iceg200/pawdf.htm https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.1.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.iceg200/cvtdf.htm PDF book: 'Smart DFSORT Tricks' ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/dfsort/mvs/sorttrck.pdf Groete / Greetings Elardus Engelbrecht ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
