Hi
I am facing a problem
i am having a value -$999,999.99
I have presently declared it as
10 DETAIL-X-COMM-AMT PIC -$999,999.99.
it looks like this when displayed in report
-$000,999.99
but i want to suppress the leading zeros , can you please suggest a solution
one solution which i tried was using -$$$,$$9.99
but this gives the display like this - $999.99
which creates a gap betn the sign and $ value , i dont want that |

Hello,
Suggest you move the sign to the right-side of the value (rather than leadinig).
Most (if not all) business users do not want a leading minus sign. |

Hi Anuj,
The current desired output is -$123.55.
I suspect that when this is delivered (especially if there is a column of numbers), it will need to be changed. |
