Columns 20-27 Factor 2 Field The factor 2 field must be the same length as the factor 1 field and in the same record as the factor 1 field. These columns identify the location of the factor 2 field. Columns 20-23 (from) tell XSORT where the field starts. Columns 24-27 (to) tell the program where the field ends. Coding Entries For readability, both "from" and "to" sections should be right-justified. This is, the "from" entry should end in column 23, and the "to" entry should end in column 27. Sometimes fields are only a single character in length. When there is only one character, skip the 20-23 entry, leaving it blank. Enter the column number of the record position containing the character in columns 24-27.
