CMPPFM isn't limited by record length, so far as I know. It IS limited to 32K of data, thereabouts.

I find this and the MRGSRC (that might not be quite the right name - it's option 55 in PDM) to be amazing tools. Mark Waterbury was instrumental in getting IBM to build these the way they are - much thanks, Mark!

Cheers
Vern

Have you tried command: CMPPFM ?
It was developed specifically for Source files like QCLSRC, etc
Works on any file with record length less than something like 120 ?

Subject: Flat file comparision

Below is my code
IF COND(Z10_A = 'ADMFILE' & Z10_B = &LIB) THEN(DO)
ALCOBJ OBJ((Z10_B/Z10_A *FILE *EXCL)) WAIT(500)
MONMSG MSGID(CPF1002 CPF1085) EXEC(GOTO CMDLBL(RETRY))
CALL PGM(ADMPGMC)
CLRPFM FILE(&LIB/ADM.FILE)
MONMSG MSGID(CPF3142) EXEC(CRTPF FILE(&LIB/ADM.FILE)
CPYF FROMFILE(&LIB/ADMFILE) TOFILE(&LIB/ADM.FILE) MBROPT(*REPLACE)
COMMANDC P1(ADM.FILE) P2(&LIB)
DLTF FILE(&LIB/ADMFILE)
ENDDO

I receive a flat file by name ADMFILE into AS/400, This flat file does not contain any date in it. I apply the contents of the file(to my in house files) by calling an internal program. I copy the contents of the file into another file (flat file in our system contain dot)and delete it.
What I am trying to do is compare the file as soon as it received with previous day file and if both are same send an email alert ( if both are different dont do anything and go to next step) and if the file is not received by certain time send an email alert.
I am looking for AS/400 utility(or if any code) that does the job and also open for suggestions to change my existing code. I need to keep check for the file for an hour time and send an alert as well.
Thanks
