Help required to convert VB file to to FB file.

Post by Biden »

Hi,

I have a VB file which I need to change to FB file. In input file, when the record length is shorter than the LRECL of output then I want to fill the record with a '#'. Can you please guide me how can I do this?

If your site uses DFSORT, look in the manual at VTOF with VLFILL.  If your site uses SYNCSORT, you need to use the CONVERT option.  In either case, you can look up the specifics in the manual.
