If there's only one thing to change per line (maximum, or limit) I always use DO=1 on the FINDREP. If there's a limit to where the data can start, end, or both, there's STARTPOS and ENDPOS. Use IFTHEN=(WHEN=(logicalexpression) to only allow the FINDREP to operate on the expected records.

Good day to all DFSORT gurus Background: I have setup an automated e-mail reporting system which grab reports from various inputs, then I use IEBGENER to build up one PS file containing data in this sequence: e-mail body - report - boundary data - next report - ... etc ... (In this way I can
