Generally we will be using DISPLAY for displaying some message
DISPLAY 'THE AMOUNT AFTER CALCULATION IS:' WS-AMOUNT.
Instead of WS-AMOUNT I will write some calculation using conditions.
IF WS-COUNT > 0
WS-AMOUNT = WS-COUNT * 12
ELSE
WS-AMOUNT = 0.
I want to use this kind of conditions in display statement. Will it work. |

Will the above statement work now. Treat it as a single statement. |

Hi venu,
I dont think its possible but u can do like
| Code: |
IF WS-COUNT > 0
COMPUTE WS-AMOUNT = WS-COUNT * 12
ELSE
COMPUTE WS-AMOUNT = 0.
DISPLAY 'THE AMOUNT AFTER CALCULATION IS :' WS-AMOUNT. |
[/code] |

Ofcourse Ekta,
I will do that. But I am beginner in Mainframes. I thought of asking the correct syntax before doing myself because its a new thing.
thnx |

You should not ask syntax, instead refer the manual first.
Try yourself first,if problem comes then ask on the forum, we are always there for help.  With this approach you will learn fast.

By the way, can you name one language which supports this?  |

dBaseIII, which I've used in the FoxBase and FoxPro implementations, allows an "immediate if"; e.g.,:
a = b + iif(<cond>,c,d)
where if <cond> is true, the iif(...) value = c, else = d.
A very nice feature indeed. |
