Hello,

To make her more comfortable, run your job using PGM=SORT (sort and iceman invoke the same load module).

I have another problem now, my senior is asking why I didn't use ICETOOL as she never heard of ICEMAN.


Explain to your "senior" that PGM=ICEMAN and PGM=SORT both invoke DFSORT. There is no difference between them. PGM=ICETOOL invokes DFSORT's ICETOOL utility.

PGM=SORT and PGM=ICEMAN have been available for over 30 years.
PGM=ICETOOL is a relative newcomer in that it has only been available since 1991. icon_lol.gif
