Hi,
I need to Insert the DFSORT - Reserved words in to my output records like
OUTFIL FNAMES=OUTDD2,
BUILD=(C'C'xxx'',76x)
My output with LRECL with 80 should appear as :
c'xxx' (followed by 76spaces)
c'xxx' (followed by 76spaces)
c'xxx' (followed by 76spaces)
What is the Special sysmbol i must use before the reserved words, Like C then- ' so that DFSORT processes them as text characters. |

"c'xxx'" is six bytes, followed by "76spaces" is 82 bytes, not 80.....

Generally a quote within a quoted string is done by using a double quote....C'c''xxx'''? |

VIGNRSH,
This has nothing to do with reserved words. It has to do with using two apostrophes for one apostrophe. You can use these DFSORT control statements for your example:
| Code: |
OPTION COPY
OUTFIL FNAMES=OUTDD2,
BUILD=(C'C''XXX''',80:X)
