SORTDB -- Sort Data Base - Front End to FMTDTA

SORTDB -- Sort Data Base - Front End to FMTDTA
Sort Data Base File. Provides a command interface for externally described files to create and/or execute the typical specifications required by the Reformat Utility. Allows simple selection criteria. Useful for front ending batch programs to use arrival sequence processing instead of using keyed processing. Arrival sequence processing is normally much faster if the file to be read is more than 1000-2000 records.
