I have a field with data type X(10). I want to perform
arithmetic operation on this field? I tried doing it by
moving the value into a numeric field. but it didn't work
out. I am getting a S0C7 abend. Pls let me know if there is
any way of getting this done?

Answer Posted / suersh ramaiyan

Use REDEFINE.

Example:

01 NUMBER-X PIC X(10).
01 NUMBER-N REDEFINES NUMBER-X
PIC 9(10).

COMPUTE A = NUMBER-N + B

This will surely work.

Our issue is there seems to be a disconnect, or no link, between our SELECT statement and our SD. We had SELECT SORT-FILE and SELECT SORT-FILE ASSIGN TO SORTWRK. ASSIGN TO SORTWRK1 SORTWRK2 SORTWRK3 SORTWRK4. with SD SORT_FILE RECORD CONTAINS 7833 CHARACTERS. In either case, at run time, the system ignored our SORTWRK# DD statements and allocated 16 sort works with the SORTWK## naming convention. Any ideas why the system does not recognize the connection? We do not even need the SORTWRK DD statements. Thanks
