David,

create a program that loops through all possible values between AA00001
and ZZ99999, does a SETLL to the file, and writes the missing (=available)
numbers to a workfile, spooled file, etc.

Extraction problem






Hi,

I have a file with catalogue numbers like this : AA00001 to ZZ99999.

Is there a neat way to extract all the numbers available ( not being used
) for a given prefix ?

eg, the list of numbers available between PE00020 and PF99290, list of
numbers with prefix AZ.

Thanks
