hi, I am having questions on "initialize" if I initialize a record which contain char, numeric fields, what's contain in the above fields.


thankyou
 
Hi,

you get spaces for alfanumeric and zeroes for numeric fields, but not on the fillers, they will not be touched.

It can be smart to make your own itilializing record which contains all the values you need. With one (fast!) move you initialize your record.

hi,
You can also use the initialize verb like this

INITIALIZE W-GROUP REPLACING NUMERIC DATA BY 33

INITIALIZE W-GROUP REPLACING ALPHANUMERIC DATA BY SPACES jimlee
