I have a source program compiled with Cobol-2. The output
file has a record length of 100 defined in the program but
a record of 60 bytes getting written into it. i.e. The rest
of 40 bytes I am not Writing anything. But it by default
puts some values into the last 40 bytes. However it does
not impact anything. But when Compiled the module with
Enterprise Cobol the last 40 bytes were spaces as fillers.
Can anyone explain?

hi
Before writing into the output file, just explicitly give
move spaces to rest of fields..
eg: ww-filler pic x(40) value spaces.
move ww-filler to ww-out-rec(61:40)
write ww-out-rec.
i hope the above code will resovle your problem.
Happy coding,
Ram.G
