Question sort sum fields
HI ALL,

i have a problem when i do a sort sum with many fields.
Is there a limit for fields?
Do you know a solution?

thanks in advance.



the shell is:

Code:
# SORT1
SORT1_rcode=777

if [ $GLB_code -eq 0 ]; then
   echo "USE $DARSEQ/OTPU.FTPEPREC RECORD F,1000 " > $DARPARSRT/TPEKL508.SORT1_$$.srt
   echo "GIVE $DARTMP/__TPO501$$ RECORD F,1000 " >> $DARPARSRT/TPEKL508.SORT1_$$.srt

mfsort is not a standard unix command. Shell programs can't fix a problem with some package just becuase it's invoked from the shell. Maybe Micro Focus can help you.

Not sure if this will be of much help since I've never used mfsort, but I was reading 404 Not Found .

You could use the following to show the length of each line in the input file:

Code:
awk '{print length}' <filename>

Is it possible that the input file has varying record legnths with some not meeting SORT FIELDS=(1,5,A,52,4,A) requirments? I'd test it, but don't have a copy of mfsort or the input file. Is mfsort a standalone binary or does it require libraries etc. that are part of a Microfocus Cobol suite?

Cheers,

Keith

Is mfsort a standalone binary or does it require libraries etc. that are part of a Microfocus Cobol suite? If it works as a standalone and isn't too large, could I get a copy so I can try to help a little more?

Cheers,
