Hello NicC, the problem will keep coming unless the length is handled explicitly as tested by Pandora/Mr. Woodgar in the earlier tagged post; at least for SYNCSORT.

Aside, Susanta, for a VB dataset, you add 4 to the already specified start-of-data positions; for example, from: FIELDS=(11,14,CH,A) , 11 changes to 15; from FIELDS=(2,14,CH,A), 2 changes to 6; and so on. Play around with it a bit, and you should be able to work it out. There are hundreds of examples for this available on the forum as well as the good ol' web (if the manual is not around).

Do confirm if the information from the link shared and stated by Mr. Raj a few posts earlier was helpful in to resolving the issue, because your last sort-card doesn't show any changes.
