Mona

It's been so long since I wrote a flat file tape that I am not sure that I have a jcl sample available. However, in looking at the MVS companion, they give the dcb parameters outside of the parentheses. Try changing your code to

FILENAME OUT "IB.PRD.DDL3.Z109.SORTI.V003000.ORDER" UNIT=CARTE LABEL=(,,,OUT,RETPD=365) RECFM=FB LRECL=214 BLKSIZE=32742

DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE) ;

This is what I ran

FILENAME OUT "IB.PRD.DDL3.Z109.SORTI.V003000.ORDER" UNIT=CARTE LABEL=(,,,OUT,RETPD=365) DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=214,BLKSIZE=32742) ___ ___ ___ 23 23 23 ERROR 23-2: Invalid option name DCB. ERROR 23-2: Invalid option name DCB. ERROR 23-2: Invalid option name DCB. 19 DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE) ; ERROR: Error in the FILENAME statement.
