Dear Team,

I have a requirement wherein I need to move a variable of FIXED DEC(15,2) to PIC clause.

I am new to PLI. I have searched for this on Google, but could not get much information.

It would be really great if someone can help me with this.

Thanks a lot in advance.

if You are new to pl/1 why do You list it as skill ???

what about a good/ole/plain/simple assignment statement

Code:
pic_var = othr_format_var ;


providing a proper skills description
will make easier to answer using the proper terminology and the needed detail.

And why use Google? Google is not the PL/1 manual which is easily accessible on the internet or on many forums.

Hello,

I listed PLI as a skill because I started working on it.

And, I assigned FIXED DEC to PIC using assignment statement, but, the values are not being moved to PIC.

'Skill' means you have a reasonable level of competence. As you are just starting you have zero level of competence as is demonstrated by your problem.

Now, please show the declarations you are using for your FIXED DEC and PIC variables and the assignment statements. Please use the code tags for you code snippets (use the POSTREPLY button)
