How to create report in SYNCSORT ?

For example If a file has 10 fields.

I want to create report on each field

such that based on Field1 is 10 bytes field2 is 20 bytes, etc

I want to create report on field1 based on first 2 bytes and field2 on first 1 byte,etc

abcdefgh bvvccvnxbv
ahgdghjk cxvbbvnxcb
iugfgbvcv bvxbvbvcv
ahbvjgvg bcbvbvghgj
gsdvcxgv wgfhghgffb

The report should be as follows..

field1:

ab-1
ah-2
gs-1
iu-1

field2:

b-3
c-1
w-1

etc..

Pjagthis,

Could you pleaqse refer http://www.ibmmainframeforum.com/dfsort-icetool-icegener/topic8069.html for the same analogy for this link we used record status and for your case we need to consider first two bytes if "first two bytes are fixed" and smiliarly we will go for "b" and Field2 hope it helps

Hello,

It is best to reply to currently active topics . . .

I suspect that after more than a year, this is no longer an issue. I'm surprised this appears to have "fallen thru the cracks" as we have a few people here that typically answer Syncsort questions.

Thanks for the input, though.
