Hi All,

All heard about 'ON SIZE ERROR' is used for Compute statement.

Question:

Input File structute --> A PIC 9(15)V99.
Output File structure --> B PIC 9(9)V99.

Move A to B.
ON SIZE ERROR DISPLAY "OVER FLOW OCCURS" .

Here did we use "ON SIZE ERROR" TO HANDLED FOR OVERFLOW or any other method is avalible to indicate over flow occurs.

Please help me.

Hi,

ON SIZE ERROR is not only for COMPUTE statements, when even OVER FLOW may occur we can use. i think this is the only statement to handle.

let me know if i am wrong.
