Copying the VB file to VB file

Hi Team,
I have a requirement to copy the VB file of rec-length:4580 to VB file based on Delimitor count upto 95 only from each record even if input record has more that delimitor fields only.Each field is associated with the | delimitor.need to truncate the fields after 95th delimitor.Can you please help

Infile:
1|2|3|...………..|95|96|...…|9999

Output:
1|2|3|...….|95

Why Easytrieve? If I understand you through all the mud of your description then this is simple in DFSort/Syncsort - simply parse out the first 95 fields and build your output using those 95 fields.

Thank you for quick reply...By using the Parse, we are building the fixed record legth w.r.to field length. let say field-1in input file has X(06) but content as ABC|DEF|..... etc. But with the parse the output will be ABC |CDF |...etc ...how we can exclude the spaces in outrec.I tried with Parse but not getting how to remove those spaces after building the field length fields

Input file:
LG|LG||065065042|20190613|20190613|10600|DWTF|101||103K40B00001GD|

Parse-Output:

LG |LG | |065065042 |20190613|20190613|

Expected-Output:
LG|LG||065065042|20190613|20190613|10600|DWTF|101||103K40B00001GD|..upto 95 | dleimitors only.

Show your control cards - and use the code tags when posting data - especially when there are multiple spaces.

Select all
 OUTREC BUILD=(%1... %95)...
 OUTFIL FTOV,                           change RECFM to VB
       BUILD=(1,length,SQZ=(SHIFT=LEFT)), remove all intermediate spaces
       VLTRIM=C' '                     truncate tail spaces as well    

Alternatively, parameter SQZ can be applied to each of 95 parsed fields (OMG!)

REXX can be used as straightforward solution, too

If dataset is not expected to be a huge one then REXX code can be simplified, and I/O optimized
Select all
/* REXX */

TotalLines = Queued()                                                
Do iRec = 1 To TotalLines                                            
   Parse Pull OldRecord                                              
   NextPos = 1

      SkipTo = Index( OldRecord, '|', NextPos )                      
      If SkipTo = 0 Then Do      /* less than 95 separators? */

What do you need to elaborate that is not in the manual? Why are you making your fields fixed length?

Why are you making your fields fixed length?--> Is there any other option not to use FIXLEN parameter through PARSE
