how to use rebuild for convert indexed files in line sequential.
sample?

I don't think that is one of the options. A simple COBOL program will do the job. The output file must have no characters less than space (X'20'). That means no packed-decimal, binary, or floating-point numbers. Also, any signed numeric fields will be much easier to read if they are converted to an edited field or specified as SIGN IS SEPARATE TRAILING CHARACTER.
 
from one friend

REBUILD INDEXFILENAME,OUTPUTFILENAME /O:IND,LSEQ
or
REBUILD INFILE,OUTFILE /T:CISAM

THANKS FOR ALL
 
mfcobol2002: What version of REBUILD do you have? My version (3.2.46) does not have the second parameter for /O:.
