Hi All,
I would like to replace input record with spaces once we found PIC clause in the input file.
Input file
Input file.PNG
Expected output
out put.PNG
File record length is 80
expecting Sort methodology.

DO NOT POST IMAGES !
no reason to waste 25K bytes when
a plain text cut and paste from Your 3270 emulator is more than enough
( no more than 1kb bytes )

Why do you want to do this? I ask because it may be easier to use the compile listing to extract variable names.

That is my requirement. I am developing a logic to fetch all variables in the data division using sort. Now i am facing difficulties in formatting the data which i gave?

Hello,
Fairly sure that you'd have found a solution for this by now; just in case you haven't, explore the usage of PARSE keyword in *SORT.
PARSE, coupled with ENDBEFR should give you the desired output.
