with assign command

exec cics
TWALENG (data-area)
end-exec

returns halfword binary lenght of the twa.
If no twa area exist a zero lenght is returnsed.

I just want to ask why does the variable I passed in a dclgen of sql that has a data type of varchar which has a maximum length is 250 is truncated,, Here is the code.. DCLGEN of rsauud01 table 01 dataarea 43 data-area-len pic s9(4). 43 data-area-text pic x(250). MYVARIABLE. 01 DATAAREA1 pic x(250). move 250 to data-area-len of dataarea of rsauud01 MOVE DATA-AREA1 TO data-area-text of dataarea of rsauud01 --- but it is always trucated everytime I insert it in the table by the way it is a cobol-cics program
