spaces to umeric field will give data exp error soc7

Zeroes to alphabetic we cant bcoz zeroes is numeric we cant
move into the alphabetic if we move it will give soc7

But using redefines we can moves num-alpa, alpa -num
these kind we use for copybook where in if you have one
field need to change for num/alpa.instead going for new
copybook .

Answer / thavasi

all above answers are incorrect.


Move SPACES to numeric field:
=============================

Moving spaces/non-numeric to numeric won't give any
compilation error or S0C7.

S0C will occur only when u do computation with non-numeric data.

ZERO to alphabetic field:
========================

MOVing ZEROS to alphabetic - will result in compilation error.
