Hi,
I have a requirement in which i have to convert a comp variable (binary) to an displayable format, i have used a sort card for this.It is working fine for positive numbers but for negative numbers it is displaying some junk value. the sort card is:
| Code: |
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL OUTREC=(1:7X,8:63,8,16:4X,20:72,4,BI,EDIT=(STTTTTTTTT),
SIGNS=(,-,,),30:50X)
|
Input record lenght -- 450
input field
| Code: |
BASE PIC X(08). start pos --63 len-8
NUMBER PIC S9(9) USAGE COMP. start pos --72 len-4
|
input file data:
| Code: |
base number
02610244 -345678901
03667163 -678901234
03912421 890123456
0396468C -987654321
04064428 876543210
|
output obtained:
| Code: |
base number
02610244 949288395
03667163 616066062
03912421 890123456
0396468C 307312975
04064428 876543210

Please let me know if there is any special way to handle negative numbers or is something wrong in my sort card. |
