I've got to produce a dataset on the IBM mainframe that can then be loaded up to an Oracle database.

What are the valid formats I can use for the data?

Everything I've seen so far has been CHAR. Is it not possible to use Integer (in cobol S9(9) COMP) or Decimal (S9(13)V99 COMP-3) formatted numbers?
