-SET &INREC = ' ';
-SET &OUTREC = ' ';

-* Allocate files
FILEDEF INFILE DISK infile.dat
FILEDEF OUTFILE DISK outfile.dat
-RUN

-READLOOP
-* Read file contents, in this example I am using a single 25 alpha field
-READ INFILE NOCLOSE &INREC.A25
-* Are we at the end of the file?
-IF &IORETURN NE 0 THEN GOTO END_MAILREAD;
-* Insert you IF condition here and put the results in a variable so that we can write it out
-SET &OUTREC = &INREC;
-WRITE OUTFILE &OUTREC
-GOTO READLOOP

-END_MAILREAD

Alternatively, create a master file for your INFILE and then TABLE it, storing the output via SAVE or HOLD etc.

Hi steve,

I am using sequential datasets in OS/390.Also is that possible to write the data in a buffer(HOLD AS) to a sequential dataset ?.

Thanks.
