itdsen,
Use reference modification and check for NUMERIC or ALPHABETIC. |

| Code: |
01 pass-no.
05 first-four-pass-no.
10 1st-of-first-four pic x(01).
88 valid VALUES 'A' THRU 'I'
, 'J' THRU 'R'
, 'S' THRU 'Z'.
10 2nd-of-first-four pic x(01).
88 valid VALUES 'A' THRU 'I'
, 'J' THRU 'R'
, 'S' THRU 'Z'.
10 3rd-of-first-four pic x(01).
88 valid VALUES 'A' THRU 'I'
, 'J' THRU 'R'
, 'S' THRU 'Z'.
10 4th-of-first-four pic x(01).
88 valid VALUES 'A' THRU 'I'
, 'J' THRU 'R'
, 'S' THRU 'Z'.
05 last-six-pass-no Pic 9(06).
if valid in 1st-of-first-four
and
valid in 2nd-of-first-four
and
valid in 3rd-of-first-four
and
valid in 4th-of-first-four
and
last-six-pass-no numeric
then
everthing is valid
else
you don't have a valid combination.
end-if
|
alphanumeric is 'A' thru 'Z' and '0' thru '9'. |

| Reference modification makes the field alphanumeric so a numeric test does not work. |

I verified via testing that
IF MIXED-VAR (5 : ) NUMERIC
DISPLAY 'NUMERIC PASSED'
ELSE
DISPLAY 'NUMERIC FAILED'
END-IF.
displays NUMERIC PASSED when executed. There's no reason reference modification fields can't be used in numeric tests as long as the underlying data structure doesn't contain elementary signed items. |

01 PASS-NO.
05 CHAR-VAL PIC X(04).
05 INT-VAL PIC 9(06).
IF CHAR-VAL IS ALPHABETIC THEN
IMPERATIVE STATEMENTS..
END-IF.
IF INT-VAL IS NUMERIC THEN
IMPERATIVE STATEMENTS...
END-IF.
