Hello,

I have the following datatype:

03 tabelle.
05 occurs 9.
07 occurs 9.
10 elem.
12 elem-a pic 9.
12 elem-b pic 9.

How can I reset the datatype, so that no value is set?

Thanks a lot!

MOVE ALL ZERO TO TABELLE.

I've never understood why people do this.

Surely the figcon ALL is redundant in the above?

Can you explain this for me please, Donald?

Pete.

Sure. I use the "all" to differentiate between a single value being used for a single parameter and a series of ASCII characters being moved to sub-fields at the source level so I do not have to go back and check the format of the receiving field.
