Subject: Update the Sortout file with record count at defined pos
Posted: Tue May 17, 2016 8:59 pm (GMT 5.5)
Hello,
I would like to the count the number of records in sortin and update the record count at a certain posistion in the sortout file.
I am currently using
But - This sort card wipes out all the contents of the file I have in Test.sort.out.ps and prints the trailer line only whereas I would like to retain the content of the sortout file but only change a particular record and update it with record count from sortin.
How could I acheive this ? Thank you for your help!
P:S- I have this also cross posted in the synsort forum - Sorry to duplicate if it appears so - I just want to try the ask in both the products section for solution.
