You can't use move when doing math operations with
different data types / presentations.
Try compute statement to convert one of the numbers to the
same presentation as another one and then compare.

Like, A - pic
B - comp-3
Define W as comp-3

Compute W = A

compare W and B

What is COMP-1? COMP-2?

Our issue is there seems to be a disconnect, or no link, between our SELECT statement and our SD. We had SELECT SORT-FILE and SELECT SORT-FILE ASSIGN TO SORTWRK. ASSIGN TO SORTWRK1 SORTWRK2 SORTWRK3 SORTWRK4. with SD SORT_FILE RECORD CONTAINS 7833 CHARACTERS. In either case, at run time, the system ignored our SORTWRK# DD statements and allocated 16 sort works with the SORTWK## naming convention. Any ideas why the system does not recognize the connection? We do not even need the SORTWRK DD statements. Thanks
