If you want to sort an internal table, you can use any sorting algorithm.
Here is an exaple code:
Given is an internal table
       01  FOUND-DATA-TABLE.
           05 FOUND-TABLE-ENTRIES          OCCURS 89 TIMES.
              10 TAB-EL.
                 15 TAB-OBEC               PIC  X(42) VALUE SPACES.
                 15 TAB-POCET              PIC  9(2)  VALUE 0.
The table should be sorted according to field TAB-OBEC.
So here is an COBOL-Code for the simple sorting procedure for the above
table
       SORT-THE-TABLE SECTION.
      ***  BubbleSort Algorithm
       B-SORT01.
           MOVE  ZERO      TO  SC-SORT.
           COMPUTE J-MAX = TAB-SIZE-INDEX - 1.
       B-SORT10.
           PERFORM VARYING J FROM 1 BY 1 UNTIL J > J-MAX
              IF TAB-OBEC (J)  >  TAB-OBEC (J + 1)
                 PERFORM AUSTAUSCH
              END-IF
           END-PERFORM.
       B-SORT80.
      *** Check, if the change of elements was done
           IF SC-SORT      = '1'
              GO TO B-SORT01
           END-IF.
       B-SORT90.
           EXIT.
      ***  Change the two adjacent elements *********
       AUSTAUSCH SECTION.
       AUST01.
           MOVE  TAB-EL (J + 1) TO TEMP-EL.
           MOVE  TAB-EL (J)     TO TAB-EL (J + 1).
           MOVE  TEMP-EL        TO TAB-EL (J).
           MOVE  '1'            TO SC-SORT.
       AUST90.
           EXIT.
And now you only need to call the above procedure elsewhere in your
program with
       PERFORM SORT-THE-TABLE

[COBOL400-L] Sorting A Table
I need to sort a table by one of its elements which should be easy enough.
 There are no experienced COBOL programmers in this shop and my only book
example is non-iSeries.  SEU is hanging up on my sort statement.
Here is what I have:
01  SL415-CB-Work-Table.
    04  CB-Table-Ctr              Pic 99 Value Zero.
    04  CB-Work-Table-Entry
            Occurs 50
            Ascending Key Is CB-Past-Due
            Indexed By CB-Index.
        06  CB-Past-Due           Pic X(3).
        06  CB-SSN                Pic X(9).
        06  CB-Ln-Num             Pic XX.
        06  CB-Account-Status     Pic XX.
The editor chokes on this:
Sort CB-Work-Table-Entry On Ascending Key CB-Index.
What to do?  I'd buy an iSeries COBOL book but I'm outahere at the end of
the month.  I could also do this in SQL if I knew how.
Thanks,
