![]() ![]() In Fujitsu, you must declare them as 9(04) COMP-5. These fields are very important if you call the Windows API's or C(++) routines directly from Cobol. If you declare a field like PIC X(02) COMP-5, you have a two-byte field which can hold any unsigned number which fits into two bytes, so 0. ![]() In Net Express, you can have alphanumeric comp-5 fields, eg PIC X(02) COMP-5. I must strongly advise you to use this option in Fujitsu. ![]() Fortunately, Fujitsu knows the BINARY(BYTE) compiler option, which changes this Fujitsu behaviour to the same as Net Express. FUJITSU stores COMP and COMP-5 fields in 2, 4 or 8 bytes depending on the picture clause. My experience is, Fujitsu is more strictly using ANSI standards than Net Express does. I could write the entire evening about the differences, I think you must ask some specific questions in this forum. In fact, our sources compile and run both in Net Express and Fujitsu Cobol now. ![]()
