There is probably a good solution for your SyncSort problem, but you can have a look at thread 'DFSORT - ICETOOL - Search for text and replace with date' which I started last year. Perhaps SyncSort can do what DFSORT and ICETOOL can do as shown in above thread. Just check the above thread and look if you can conjure up a solution.

Re: DFHSORT - Date Display of Previous Month
Kolusu works for IBM's DFSORT. He is not going to comment on the particular competing product that you use. What does it say in the manual? Can you show what you tried, how it failed, and more exactly what you want to do, with some sample input, expected output., amd output you receive? -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
Re: DFHSORT - Date Display of Previous Month
Thanks Kolusu
So the DATE2 cannot be used in a HEADER1 definition?

Couple of clarifications
1. It is DFSORT and not DFHSORT(There is no H) 2. Your error messages start
with WER which indicates you are using Syncsort and not DFSORT 3. You don't
need to use INCLUDE=ALL as it is the default to include all records for DFSORT
4. The same is the case for specifying Files=OUT as SORTOUT is the default.
Either way if you need last month date, you need to use date2 parm but you need
to use on inrec/outrec .
I assumed that your input has an lrecl of 80 bytes and we put the previous
month date at position 81 and remove it using BUILD on outfil
This is a working syntax for DFSORT, but i cannot comment on the other product
//SYSINDD *
SORT FIELDS=(1,2,CH,A)
OUTREC OVERLAY=(81:DATE2-1)
OUTFIL BUILD=(1,80),
HEADER1=('DATE',15:81,6)

Re: DFHSORT - Date Display of Previous Month
Kolusu
OK, I see what you did below to get the date in the HEADER. Thanks
I believe I can make this work.
