My COBOL Copybook has a field defined as PIC -$999,999.99 which was translated into a Fixed Length String with a Length of 5 which is obviously wrong. What should the proper translation be for CWF?
Thanks,
Gary

Gary,
This could be a bug in MRM COBOL importer.

For any one interested, I did some research and determined the following:
For PIC -$999,999.99
The "-" will be "-" if negative and blank otherwise and occupy one space.
PICTURE Value of Data Edited Result
-$999,999.99 -123456.78 -$123,456.78
-$999,999.99 +123456.78 $123,456.78
So, the translated format should have been a STRING of length 12, right?
Thanks,
Gary |

I am not an COBOL expert! But, I agree with you, the STRING length should have been 12.
You could open a PMR with IBM for this.

How do you open a PMR with IBM about WMQI? Every number I've tried leads down a path of customer-no-service.
Thanks,
