Answer / shinoy sansilavose

it occupies one additional byte when it is specified with
signed variable declaration.

Example:

01 ws-num pic s9(04) sign trailing separate.

move '+1234' to ws-num
then the value will be stored as +1234.

how to display date in reverse order if the pic clause of the is numeric suppose date is 09032010 ==> need to print in 20100309 (pic clause is numeric)
