Answer / sivakumar sekharannair

Chakri and kavya are correct.We can move numeric to
alphanumeric and vice versa. error will be thrown only when
we do arithmetic operations when we move alpha numeric to
numeric data items .

Can we MOVE X(9) to 9(9) OR 9(9) to X(9)? If yes what are the ways for doing this?..

Answer / jawaad

yes you can do both , but wait....

1) 9(9) to x(9) will be fine

2) x(9) to 9(9) may have problem in some cases:-

a) Suppose :x(9) has value "5"
when you move to 9(9) it will be
"5 " ,Yes 9(9) will have spaces
instead of
"000000005"
b)you will get soc7 when you perform arithemetic on x(9)
above

Can we MOVE X(9) to 9(9) OR 9(9) to X(9)? If yes what are the ways for doing this?..

Answer / varun v

yes you can..use REDEFINES for the same purpose.

Move X(9) to 9(9):-

Working storage section:-
01 WS-VARX PIC X(9) VALUE SPACES.
01 WS-VARN REDEFINES WS-VARX PIC 9(9).

Now you can move X(9) variable to WS-VARX.Eventually it is
moved to the 9(9) variable WS-VARN.

Similarly viceversa..

Answer / sp

Fully agree to Jayaprabhu.
We can move 9(9) to X(9). But if alphanumeric field
contains only numeric then and then we can move X(9) to 9
(9).

Answer / ajay

Sorry ..
I don't know why you are looking into Redefines clause for
the above ...
See what ever it is you can able to move from NUMERIC to
ALPHANUMERIC.But you can not able to move alphanumerics to
NUMERIC.
Move 9(9) to x(9) --possible
Move x(9) to 9(9) -- Not possible.
They may try to confuse you ... but don't give a chance to
them Thanks.
