If the first few bytes of a XX-KEY on which a file is to be sorted
is numeric and rest are alphanumeric
Code:

5 XX-KEY                             
  10 XX-SERIAL-NUM                 9(7)   
  10 XX-SERV-ID                     X(4)   


then should the sord card be
SORT FIELDS=(1,11,ZD,A) or SORT FIELDS=(1,CH,ZD,A) ?
