You might want to look at using the FMTDTA command. You'll need to build a
source member or two, but you should be able to achieve what you need.

I have been banging my head against this message for a couple of hours now
without any success.
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)
