Hi
this is Radhika...
include is use to extract the selected fields from input
dataset and copy to ouput dataset using sort utility.

//SORTTA EXEC
PGM=SORT
//SYSIN DD
*
SORT FIELDS=COPY
INCLUDE COND=
(52,9,CH,EQ,C’123456789’)

/*

//SORTIN DD DSN=…,DISP=SHR
//SORTOUT DD DSN=…
//SYSOUT DD
SYSOUT=*
//
The INCLUDE control statement is used to establish
Selection criteria for the records to be included in the
Output dataset.

And for additional information,you can use

OMIT COND=(34,3,CH,EQ,C'MMM')
to omit ..

INREC FIELDS=(1,50,75,25,125,50)

OUTREC FIELDS=(1,50,75,25,125,50)
