Hi friends,

We are trying below sort card on a file to prepare output records based on input file values.

Code:
SORT FIELDS=COPY                                             
OUTFIL IFTHEN=(WHEN=(37,1,CH,EQ,C'Z'),BUILD=(C'5050    ',/, -
                                             C'5151    ')), -
       IFTHEN=(WHEN=(37,1,CH,EQ,C'D'),BUILD=(C'5343    ')), -
       IFTHEN=(WHEN=(37,1,CH,EQ,C'C'),BUILD=(C'5135    '))


If 37 character is not either Z or D or C then one blank record in written in the output file.

Can you please guide us how to avoid blank record.

psmadhusudhan,

Depends on what you want to do if you find a record that has a value other than Z,D,C.

1. If you only want Z,D,C records to be processed then add an INCLUDE cond to only process Z,D,C records

Code:

INCLUDE COND=(37,1,SS,EQ,C'C,D,Z')


2. If you decide to process other value records, then you need to another IFTHEN=(WHEN=NONE

Code:

IFTHEN=(WHEN=NONE,BUILD=(C'OTHER RECORDS'))

Thanks Kolusu. INCLUDE COND worked fine and blank record is not coming in output.
Sorry for delay in reply as just now back from Diwali holidays.
