why not search the forum Yourself, there are zillions of examples
and the most of them are explained very clearly

being new to something does not exempt you from doing a bit of work Yourself
and from asking people who spend time helping to write and post over and over the same things/suggestions/code snippets
cheers

Why would it have to be ICETOOL?

Just plain SORT with JOINKEYS, assuming your program level is close to up-to-date.

Can you post the ICE201I message from the sysout of any sort step, please?

Are you wanting the JCL or the control cards?
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.

OK, forget this example for the moment. Find a very simple JOINKEYS example. Try to run it. If it runs, forget the SPLICE solution. JOINKEYS supercedes SPLICE solutions for matching files.

Do that, then we can explain the "cntl" files. Please show the sysout from your step when you run the JOINKEYS so that we can see what functions/product you have available.

This this one, for instance: syncsort-synctool/compare-two-files-t8101.html#p38049
