Moving alone will not cause SOC-7 . It would abend with SOC7 only when you do arithmetic operations on a numeric field populated with non-numeric data . If am not wrong, this was once posted in this forum. |

A redefines will not cause an 0c7.
Invalid numeric data will.
Simply redefining an "x" field as a "9" field does not make the content numeric. You must validate and/or correct the data before you use it.

This needs clarification. . . |
