HP RPG/XL Utilities-Part 1 XSORT

Columns 17-18 
Type of Comparison 

This entry tells XSORT what kind of comparison you want to make between
factor 1 and factor 2.  You will specify the type and location of factor
2 when you fill in columns 20-80 (if it is a constant) or 20-27 (if it is
another field in the same record).  When you specify Alternate Collating
Sequence, XSORT modifies factors 1 and 2 before making comparisons.
