Hi nmr,
Pls send the value that variable 'a' and 'b' contains,
you are not allowed to compare directly like what you posted?, because the comp-3 variable is in packed decimal format.
you can move the comp-3 variable to equivalent local variable then you can compare the variable with the local variable.

as those variables are alphanumeric, i can assign some values to those two.
for ex: if i assign 10 to a & 8 to b, i can compre those two fields like that.
i can do like this.is it so?
i am wrong then please suggest your answer to this scenario. |

Hello,
I believe there is no such thing as
| Code: |
01 a pic x(3) comp-3.
|
The initial post is "Can we compare a comp-3 feild with display feild". The posted example contains neither. . .
Please start over and post an example that matches the question. |

if the alphanumeric contains the numeric value then then it works
but if alphanumeris contains othere than numeric value then it not works, it will abend. |

Hi NMR,
Change your Declaration to Numeric as like this,
| Code: |
01 A PIC S9(3) COMP-3 VALUE ZEROS.
01 B PIC 9(3) VALUE ZEROS.
01 other-variable PIC 9(3) VALUE ZEROS |
Then assign values and move to other variable, Just like this,
| Code: |
MOVE 111 TO A.
MOVE 109 TO B.
MOVE A TO other-variable.
IF A = B + 2
do your operation
ELSE
do your operation
END-IF. |
But above won't cover all routines, I mean if Value B is 999 then it will give wrong answer. And hence do your arthematic operation with other variable, then check your condition based on that.
Like This
| Code: |
COMPUTE NEW-B = B + 2
ON SIZE ERROR route your logic. |
If you have any regards this, let us know. |
