Good morning, I've DFSort job doing many things, and so far it's running without problems.
Now data format has changed and we start receiving lines with consecutive quotes.
How could I replace two consecutive quotes by One quote ?

Select all

Input :
123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890
' ajskdjaskj '    '    aksjdkasjdkjdk'
 

Select all

Output :
' ajskdjaskj '    aksjdkasjdkjdk'

Quote's position doesn't really matter. Only one is gone.
I'm trying with this but with no success :

Select all

   INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,FINDREP=(IN=c' ' '', OUT=c' ' '))

Any help is welcome ! Thanks

The syntax of your FINDREP is wrong.
This job cannot run at all; RC=8, or 12 is expected

Please, present your code which can run without SORT errors

P.S.
It is not clear from your example, what is the expected “correct” output?
There are no “double quotes” at all...
