hi all,
i was experimenting with various control statements in sort.Then i came across this scenario. i cannot understand it. please see if someone can help me.

job
----
Code:

//STEP040  EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT   DD  SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN   DD  DSN=VND709.SAMPLE.INPUT,
//             DISP=SHR
//SORTOUT  DD  DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
//             DSN=VND709.OUTPUT.TEST,
//             UNIT=SYSDA,
//             SPACE=(TRK,(5,5),RLSE),
//             DCB=(BLKSIZE=0,LRECL=0,RECFM=FB)
//SYSIN    DD  *
  INREC FIELDS=(1,18,C'1')
  SORT FIELDS=(1,10,ZD,A)
  SUM  FIELDS=(19,1,ZD)
  INCLUDE COND=(19,1,CH,EQ,C'1')
  OUTREC FIELDS=(1:1,19)
/*

input file
----------

1111111111AABBCCDD
3333333333AABBCCDD
2222222222AACCDDEE
5555555555LLLLLLLL
5555555555OOOOOOOO
5555555555AACCDDEE
4444444444AACCDDEE
9999999999AABBCCDD
9999999999AABBCCDD
7777777777AABBCCDD
6666666666AAEECCDD
8888888888IIIIIIII
1111111111AAFFCCDD
1111111111AAFFCCDD

output file
-----------
BLANK. no records are selected.

i took out the include condition and ran the job again.

i got the output as

1111111111AABBCCDD3
2222222222AACCDDEE1
3333333333AABBCCDD1
4444444444AACCDDEE1
5555555555LLLLLLLL3
6666666666AAEECCDD1
7777777777AABBCCDD1
8888888888IIIIIIII1
9999999999AABBCCDD2

so if i have the include condition in my sort step, then the highlighted records should be selected. But it is not being selected. can anyone explain why it is so?

thanks
doubt_man.

The INCLUDE statement (INCLUDE COND=) is processed BEFORE all of the other statements. If you want to do an INCLUDE AFTER the records are processed, you can use the INCLUDE parameter of the OUTFIL statement (INCLUDE=).

Here's a diagram that shows the order in which various DFSORT control statements are processed:

Hi Frank,
As you said , include was first processed, thats why i got the output file as blank. i changed include to outfil include. i got the correct output. thank you very much.
