Suppose I have a file with three fields with data in the
following format
1. empid - S9(4) COMP
2. empname - X(20)
3. empsal - S9(5)V(2) COMP-3
If I view this file, it will not be in a readable format.
How to display the empid and empsal fields in a readable
format without using COBOL program? What kind of SORT card
will have to be coded?

That answer was correct. Except that the byte position for the first COMP field will be 2. Not 4. It was a great answer.
