Answer / ramesh
first numeric field rediffens alpha numeric field
then you check numeric and move spaces to redifened name
ex:
01 num pic 9(09).
01 num1 rediffens num.
02 num2 pic x(09).
if num is numeric
move spaces to num2
end-if.

Thing is that spaces can't be moved to numeric fields,
u can move only zeros and other numeric values to numeric
fields, spaces can be moved to alphanumeric and alphabetic
fields only.

Answer / nitesh sethi
Use option BLANK WHEN ZERO for that field and initialize
that field.
Initalize will move zeroes to that field and declarion of
that field with BLANK WHEN ZERO will not have zeroes in
that field.
