A field declared as P8 needs to be redefined as
Alphanumeric. What would be its new size?
Answer Posted / surya
It should be redefined as A8.
Reason: even though the P8 occupies 5 bytes of memory
it is internal to the memory allocation. But to accomaodate
8 characters you need todeclare a alphanumeric character of
length 8.
dont be confused with memory allocation awith the
declaration.
