Hello,

You need to more clearly explain what you are trying to do.

Suggest you show a few "input" values and the output you want when these are processed.

WS-PO-NO PIC +9999999.

MOVE PO-NO to WS-PO-NO-ZD
MOVE 8 TO WS-PO-NO-ZD (8:1)
MOVE WS-PO-NO-ZD TO PO-NUM

This should work.

Not if WS-PO-NO is comp-3 as specified.
