Mainframe, MVS and zOS Discussion

Hi,

How you are going to decide which record of file 2 you are going to consider for populating it in File 1?

Thanks and regards,
Chandan

Hi,
no idea ?
I search aout JOINKEYS, but I don't find a solution because I don't have a key between my two files...

Datasets 1 :

Datasets 2 : Final Dataset : 

 repost Your data without colours and using only the CODE tags

First, thanks for your quick answers.
In my company, we use SyncSort Product.

Datasets 1 is : 
            ;25/03/2016;13:32:14;25/03/2016;13:33:43;25/03/2016;
Datasets 2 is :
V V0012220160318

In Final I want : 
xxxxxx;00122;25/03/2016;13:32:14;25/03/2016;13:33:43;25/03/2016;
(xxxxx it's just some text)

SORT Join would help you. Check for JOINKEYS in DFSORT manual.

But yes as Anuj said,before we would like to know the sample records and DFSORT product

Thanks and regards,
Chandan

Please note that they are not files but datasets. There is a difference.

SORT would be preferred method, for me.

What are the positions of the "keys", in both files, to make the match upon? Can you please show some sample records?

PS: Do you know which SORT product is in use at your shop?

Hi,
I try to make a concatenation with a job in batch between 2 files with a single line in each one and using diferent part of each files. This files don't have the same lg (80 for E1, 133 for E2).

I need to take the informations on file 1 in position 4 (on 5 caracters) + informations on file 2 in position 13 (on 120 caracters).

I don't know if I can use a Sort, Fileaid, UT4* on an other utilities ...

Thanks in advance for your answer.
