RE: QLGSORT and CPF3BD6 - Key field 01 is not valid for key number 1

I know that it still works on .1 as I use fir EDI applications all the time.
Not sure about 7.1.

Thanks Paul. The title threw me off as I had looked at several sort manuals
on InfoCenter that were not related to what I needed.

I finally found it but I'm wondering about its version. The manual is
labeled V5R1. I'm wondering about using something that doesn't have more
current documentation. Will someone in the future need to make
modifications and not be able to find documentation?

Google FMTDTA. The IBM specs pop up first.

Mostly because I haven't been able to find documentation for the source

file

yet. I know it exists (or at least, it used to) I just don't know where

IBM has

hidden it.

Hi, Rick:

Why not just use the FMTDTA command to sort the file into the desired
sequence _before_ you open it and attempt to process the data
contained therein...?

HTH,

I am trying to sort a flat file based on positions in the record and

defined

lengths. Specifically, the output of a Unix list directory command
piped

to an

output file. I found several examples of sorting subfiles but none

sorting flat

files. I did make some discoveries and have made tweaks based on what
I found but I still keep coming up with this error.

This is the relevant code (I think)
