HELPLIB.HLB  —  SORT  Specification File Qualifiers, /FIELD  Full Description
    Use the /FIELD qualifier to define input record fields to be used
    for a sort or merge operation or in a conditional evaluation, or
    whose order or format will change in the output record.

    Identify each field by specifying a name in the /FIELD qualifier,
    a constant value or the field position, and the size and data
    type of the field. Field names must be unique; no duplicate
    field names are allowed. You cannot use more than 255 key field
    definitions.

    Once the field-name has been specified in the /FIELD qualifier,
    it can be used in the /CONDITION, /KEY, and /DATA qualifiers.
