  OUTFIL BUILD=(6,10,80:X),VTOF


This will put a blank at column 80, and pad any intervening columns with space.

Sorry, but that is SO obvious that you should not have posted. Please analyse your failures. You just have to compare with what you wrote earlier to resolve the error. I usually have the error as DSIP. Anyway, topic locked. (And unlocked!)
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.
Regards
Nic

It's just getting stuck in a groove. Happens. Kick yourself afterwards. No biggie.

Hello,

One thing to "take away" from this is that a JCL error has nothing to do with which sort product (or any other program) was intended to run.

This is another reason that all should learn and use proper terminology . . .

As BB said - don't beat your self up - learn and move on.

which one of below SORT cards are optimised for this question and why?

Solution-1:
//SYSIN    DD *                             
 SORT FIELDS=COPY                           
 OUTFIL INCLUDE=(1,1,CH,EQ,C'T'),BUILD=(2,10)


Solution-2:
//SYSIN    DD *               
 SORT FIELDS=COPY             
 INCLUDE COND=(1,1,CH,EQ,C'T')
 OUTREC BUILD=(2,10)         


Thanks.

INCLUDE COND operates at the start of processing a record. INCLUDE= operates at the end of processing. So solution 2 is more efficient, but you don't have a lot of processing anyway.
