Hi,
I've two variables VAR1 & VAR2 which are defined as 9(3), S9(1)V9(2) COMP-3 resprectively.
VAR1 has 999 as its value. When i move VAR1 to VAR2, its value is 9.00
Question1: Why is VAR2's value 9.00 instead of 9.99?
Question2: What should i do to make sure that 9.99 gets moved to VAR2?
Any help would be deeply Appreciated
Thanks!

999 is seen as 999.00 and the recieving field causes the truncation of the high digits.

COMPUTE VAR2 = VAR1 / 100
or
VAR1 PIC 9(3).
VAR1A REDEFINES VAR1 PIC 9V99.
VAR2 PIC S9(1)V9(2) COMP-3.
MOVE VAR1A TO VAR2 |
