I am doing system upgrade. Below are two objects not convertible to V7R1. 
CHGSORT     *PGM      PRODLIB     RPG
CHGSRTSRC   *PGM      PRODLIB     CLP
These are very old third party objects were part of package purchased in  1998 to convert S36 objects to RPG400. These are still being used to sort file somehow I don't know. If I got the source code of these, these can be rewritten in RPGLE. Please help and advise here.

    Have you tried RTVCLSRC on the CLP?

    It could be anything. The library and name are not as important as to who the 3rd party software vendor was. I could have programs with the same name as well as library.. Like Splat mentioned, try the RTVCLSRC. It may work, depending on how the object was created.
    Come back with a vendor name and we might be able to help further.

    Got below error. RTVCLSRC is not helping
     Selection or command

 Source not available for CL program CHGSRTSRC in PRODLIB.                      

    I am still struggling to get the vendor name, just getting below information from object .
     Creation information:                                                  
   Creation date/time . . . . . . . . . :   09/03/96  14:01:33          
   Created by user  . . . . . . . . . . :   PETE                        
   System created on  . . . . . . . . . :   ALC400B                     
   Object domain  . . . . . . . . . . . :   *USER                       
                                                   
    Is there not any way to encapsulate these objects somehow so that these can be pushed on V7R1.

    Either the vendor used ALWRTVSRC(*NO) or removed observability on the CL program (I suspect the former).

    If the objects lack observability, there's no way for the system to unpackage & repackage them.

    Does your organisation have records going back to 1998?  If so you might be able to determine the vendor from purchase orders, invoices, &c.

    I believe my surmise about ALWRTVSRC(*NO) being employed was incorrect.  

    If the system is stating it can't be converted then it is almost certain the observability has been removed.

    I am still trying to find vendor . However i am trying to explain how it is being used pgm if anyone gets an idea how to use-

    what i analysed-

    CHGSRTSRC is used to update a source member which is finally referenced in format data command (FMTDATA) to sort our custmast file.

    How averse are you to doing some rewriting of the code that references those?

    From a quick read of the source it looks to be replaceable by either OPNQRYF or SQL.

    I m not averse to rewriting this code, just could not understand the sorting the file by this way.

    how OPNQRYF file will be on basis this code.

    pl help me to build OPNQRYF FILE , I a giving custmast structure here

    This is a skeleton that, hopefully, will get you where you need to be:

    OVRDBF     FILE([File]) SECURE(*YES) SHARE(*YES)         
                                                          
OPNQRYF    FILE(([File]))                       	+
           QRYSLT('(([Field 1] *EQ "[Value 1]") *AND	+
               	    ([Field 2] *EQ [Value 2]))')	+
           KEYFLD(([Field 3]))                          +
           OPNID(QUERY_0001)

    Which fields are being sorted in SORT000690 - source member. How to get that?

    You'll have to look at the file layout & determine what data falls between what positions.

    E.g.:  O C 512 512EQCD 

    If memory serves, the above specifies the sort is to omit any record which has, in positions 512 through 512, the character 'D'.

    Kapil, Did you get this resolved? 

    It appears you have 3 sets of omit statements(O in column 6), followed by 4 sets of include (I in column 6) statements. The A or O in column 7 indicates and AND or OR respectively. For column 7, the A connects the selection statement lines with the previous line while the O starts a new selection logic group. Also, you will need to know what is in those LDA positions referenced by the substring comparisons. The end result of the sort is a file of record address pointers for the records surviving through that selection process and the record addresses allow you to read those CUSTMAST records in ascending sequence based on the data in positions 1 - 10. (Your program reads these addresses and links them to the CUSTMAST records.)
