Hi,

I want to do check something like below:

IF CLAIM-REF(8:2) EQ 'E+' OR +
CLAIM-REF(9:2) EQ 'E+' OR +
CLAIM-REF(10:2) EQ 'E+' OR +
CLAIM-REF(11:2) EQ 'E+' OR +
CLAIM-REF(12:2) EQ 'E+' OR +
CLAIM-REF(1:2) EQ 'B='

Is that possible in easytrive? Above check gives me error. Don't we have reference modification in easytrieve.

Hello,

No, there is no cobol-like reference modification in easytrieve.

You can simply define the fields/lengths as you need them within the original field(s).
