|
|
Hi All,
Here's the problem at hand:
every member of the PDS has the below character string :
The emp dept of the employee is : *BQXXXXX
Here * can any of the alphabets. ( A -Z ) . I need to replace this with
The emp dept of the employee is : TBQXXXXX
in all the 3k members.
Can this be done using SORT ?
Thanks,
Martin |

Martin,
SORT products canNOT handle multiple PDS members at a time. A simple rexx edit macro is will get you the desired results _________________ Kolusu

Possibly, File-Aid can also be a choice but i'm not very sure about this: Quote: | Here * can any of the alphabets. ( A -Z ) . I need to replace this with
The emp dept of the employee is : TBQXXXXX | does the text in quotes means, all the strings of nature "*BQXXXXX " must be changed to "TBQXXXXX " ? _________________ Regards,
