Subject: Change date (DD/MM/YY) in 2nd record of a file using DFSORT

Hi All,

I have 20 report files (133 LRECL, RECFM=FBA).

As an example they all have header as shown below,
Code:

------------------MEDICARE REPORT----------------------------------
PART A      ------------------------------   EXECUTION DATE: 07/09/16
-------------------------------------------------------------------------


My requirement is, I will have to update EXECUTION DATE in all files with a day minus. i.e it should now become 06/09/16. Its just one time request.

I wanted to achieve this using DFSORT not through COBOL program. Can some one help me on how the sort card should be like?

Since I have 20 files to be changed (at later point of time it can be more), Can I execute SORT on all 20 files in one step instead of executing same sort for 20 times?

Please let me know if you require more details.
Code'd for you.
