Re: Dfsort Overlay error
>> Here is what i am getting . Could you please let me what changes to be made ? Ron, Sigh ! Not sure as to how you invent your own syntax hope and that it would work. You switched back to using 10 bytes despite me showing that the max length is only 8 bytes? and you coded 10 bytes without a format and converting it to TOGREG? If you looked at the $ it is right underneath the First TOGREG function. OVERLAY=(35:25,10,TOGREG=Y4T(-),ADDDAYS,+120,TOGREG=Y4T(-))) $ I guess you are so used to getting complete solutions that you don’t even bother to read and understand. Either way here is something that meets your high expectations. //SYSINDD * OPTION COPY OUTREC IFOUTLEN=44, IFTHEN=(WHEN=(35,10,CH,EQ,X'',AND, 25,10,CH,GT,X''), OVERLAY=(45:25,10,UFF,M11,LENGTH=8, 35:45,8,Y4T,ADDDAYS,+120,TOGREG=Y4T(-))) /* Thanks, Kolusu -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN

Re: Dfsort Overlay error
>> Could you please help me figure out where the issue is ? Ron, Here are the issues assuming that you read thru documentation that I shared earlier. • The Syntax of ADDDAYS shows that it requires TOGREG or TOJUL. • Look at table 18, you would notice that max length of Y4T is 8 bytes. But you are using 10 bytes. Is there a reason that you are NOT showing the error messages you got from the control cards you used? The DFSORT error messages will let you know the reason for the failure.

Re: Dfsort Overlay error
Thanks Kolusu for sharing the link . still i am not able to figure out the same . Modified as below and still not working OPTION COPY OUTREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(35,10,CH,EQ,X'', AND,25,10,CH,GT,X''), OVERLAY=(35:25,10,Y4T,ADDDAYS,+120)) Could you please help me figure out where the issue is ?

Re: Dfsort Overlay error
>> could someone please let me know what the issue is in the control card as it >> is giving error . Ron, Looks like you invented your syntax , which is NOT valid with DFSORT. Search for "Adding or Subtracting Days" in the below link and you will see the right syntax. Pay attention to Table.18 which describes the formats you can use for date arithmetic. https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.4.0?topic=statements-outfil-control Thanks, Kolusu DFSORT Development IBM Corporation -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
Dfsort Overlay error
Hi - I have a file of LRECL 44 and need to overlay a date in Position 35 by adding 120 days to the date at position 25 The overlay to be done based also on condition . Coded as below OPTION COPY OUTREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(35,10,CH,EQ,X'', AND,25,10,CH,GT,X''), OVERLAY=(35:25,10,ADDDAYS,+120)) Date format at position 25 is -MM-DD could someone please let me know what the issue is in the control card as it is giving error .
