Hi,

I have a file which has a string 'YYYYMMDD'. I want to convert that string with Current Date (Ex:20080515). Is it possible with SORT Utility?

Thanks,
DMK

dmk01,

The following DFSORT jcl will give you the desired results

Code:

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=ICEMAN   
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*       
//SORTIN   DD *             
YYYYMMDD                     
//SORTOUT  DD SYSOUT=*       
//SYSIN    DD *             
  SORT FIELDS=COPY           
  OUTREC OVERLAY=(1:DATE1)   
/*


Hope this helps...

Cheers
