[mvmanish]

i am trying to write a jcl for sorting out data. In my jcl sortin ds is vba file withe 120 byte length and sortout file is alse created with same attributes as sortin. But the problem here is i m using include statment as below.

SORT FIELDS=COPY
INCLUDE COND=(88,14,CH,EQ,C'RECORDS LOADED')

I am getting the error as "INCLUDE/OMIT FIELD BEYOND RECORD"

In the future, please post in the appropriate forum: DFSORT, Syncsort, or whatever. And use code tags where applicable.
Are any of your input records less than 101 bytes long?

Have a look at VLSCMP and VLSHRT in the documentation.
