Subject: Trouble with COPYFILE to shorten Record
I am trying to copy a file with the LRECL option to shorten it.
e.g.
Filename Filetype Fm Format Lrecl Records
TXJIM FILELIST A0 V 169 4920
COPYFILE TXJIM FILELIST A SORTER FILELIST A (LRECL 13
I expected the result to be a file with LRECL 13 but it is:
Filename Filetype Fm Format Lrecl
SORTER FILELIST A0 V 169
I need to do this soon. The file is too big to use XEDIT in a
2G machine.
Anybody have a PIPE to do this.
Note: The real file is hexadecimal data, not text.
Jim
