Hi All,

I have a field in the map (E.G: acct-code:__) 2 byte input field.
I coded the logic such a way that, If user has modified this field (acct-codeL >0) perform Para-A else Para-B.

but even if i do not modified this field i am getting acct-codeL =2.
And hence logic is not working.

Please suggest how am i getting acct-codeL =2 as i have not modified this field (i.e . MDT is OFF)

If checking the length in TRACEMASTER

Thanks in Advance!!!

Is the map-field attribute-byte always set to FSET?

All previously validated map-fields should be stored in the commarea and the attribute-byte not set to FSET.

If the user enters data, then the map-field length will be non-zero and you would then validate and/or compare this data to the commarea-data (if previously stored).
