you don't have to create them, they already exist.

The question is probably how to use them.

But then we'll want to know how you want to use them.
in Picture ? in a move to an output (3270 screen or file ?)
file to be printed ? Transfered to an ASCII environment ? XML ?

subdalal,

welcome to the IBM mainframe professional forums.

buttons for hyperlinks to manuals are at the top.
otherwise, suggest you refer the E-Cobol Lang Ref and the E-Cobol Prog Guide .
The Blue Flashlight will provide a search for page.
look for currency.
there are many options, as well as restrictions.
as there is some ambiguity to your question - it is not clear what you mean -
the info provided in the manuals will answer your question.

Just search for "currency" in the e-cobol prog-guide like dbz said. There's no point of me copy/pasting it here.

Another option would be to review the Language Environment Callable Service routine CEE3MC2 (Get default and international currency symbols), introduced with LE Version/Release 1.9.

Using this routine, you could obtain all the currency symbols associated with a given country and save them in a WS Table/Array for subsequent reference.

Better yet, create a program which writes all of these to a KSDS file, which can then be accessed by any program.

Try Googling CEE3MC2, you'll get several hits.
