When I am trying to fix an abend, I come across a value X'F04040' which is causing the problem. I am trying to simulate this in test environment. What is the value which I should be giving for this variable? In other words, what is the value of this Hex and how to recreate this value?
PS: This value is fetched directly from DB2 table in the program |

F0 is a numeric 0 (zero) and the 40s are spaces or blanks.
Sounds like somebody is updating a DB2 table without verifying the data... 
Math against non-numeric data quite often causes 0C7s...... |

Sriram Sridhar,
How is this column declared in DB2? What is the SQL that selects the column? do you redefine the field in CBOL program?
DB2 won't let you populate a decimal column with '0^^' where ^=space. |

Hello,
Please post the data description for the problem table as well as the code where the abend occurs.
It sounds like this field may be defined as char but is being used in some kind of numeric operation (move to comp-3, add, compute, etc).
Seeing the definition and the code should help. We may want to see additional data definitions in the program later. |
