Hi Hemant,
Yes you can redefine display items with comp-3.
But, I am afraid, when you use the values in your programmer, it will not give you expected results.
Always remember, redefines clause just makes the variable to start from the same locations in the memory nothing else! It doesn't make sure that the data type conversion happens automatically.
Happy redefining!!! |

Hi,
Redefines will not give any problem. But Redefined field will not hold actual data. |

Hi,
For example s9(7)v9(2) field contain 3333333.33
If it is redefined with s9(9) comp-3 then this field will contain 3 3 3 3.
I am not sure why it is giving the above value.
But when I tested this I got the above value. |
