Packed to Numeric Conversion

Hi

I have an requirement in which I need to move packed values to Numeric fields..The resultant field should also be suppressed.

I tried thru a Easy trieve program..

The declaration are as below::

Input field:: AA-CIND-UNIT-PRICE 78 06 P

Output field:: AB-CIND-UNIT-PRICE 78 11 N 4 MASK 'ZZZZZZ9.9999'

there is an intermediate working storage field which is declared as
WS-CIND-UNIT-PRICE W 11 N.

Initially AA-CIND-UNIT-PRICE is moved to WS-CIND-UNIT-PRICE
Then, WS-CIND-UNIT-PRICE is moved to AB-CIND-UNIT-PRICE

But still AB-CIND-UNIT-PRICE is displayed as packed values..Pls help me out..

Thanks
Madhan.

Madhan,

why u gave o/p field as
Output field:: AB-CIND-UNIT-PRICE 78 11 N 4 MASK 'ZZZZZZ9.9999'
when input field variable defination is 06 p i think u need to give
zzzzzzzzzzz9.
