If records are reformatted, (for example by using INREC, OUTREC or an E15 or E35 exit),
resulting in different field positions, you will need to use field_names that correspond
to the new field positions in subsequent control statements. For example, consider the
following dictionary statements:
Figure 1. Sample Dictionary Statement
Suppose the following INREC control statement is used:
Figure 2. Sample INREC Control Statement
Only Customer_Name, Customer_Zip and Customer_Acct_Bal will appear in the records after INREC processing. For subsequent control statements, your dictionary names should come from a separate dictionary that defines the new record layout. For example:
Figure 3. Sample Dictionary Statements
If the repositioned fields are given unique names, as shown above, you can concatenate the old and new dictionaries and use both the old and new dictionary_names, as follows:
