Hi ,

Please let me know how can i display 88 level condition item.

Regards,
Pavan

This is the way I usually do it....

I would just give a name to the higher level and display it

01 eof-flag pic x value space.
88 eof value '1'.

display eof-flag

Hello Pavan,

88 level entries are used for comparison - not for "moves" or "displays" or other data manipulation instructions.

Hi,

Both the codes did not work which were given in the above.
I just wanted to know out of curiosity whether there is a chance to display an 88 level item.

I find that hard to believe.....

Not directly, it is not a data item, but a condition......

I strongly suggest you review what you usd and determine just why you had problems. The learning will be most helpful to you.

hi,
if u want to display eof-flag then u can give like this....
IF EOF=1 THEN
DISPLAY EOF-FLAG
END-IF.
result is one space.

88 is the level number used for conditional clause . we can check the conditions but conditional codes doesn't return any codes so we cannot display they conditional code .and still it is used to display the values what we provide according to the given condition it will not display any conditional codes .

i am sorry if i am wrong any where .please correct me if i am wrong.

Hi Pavan/All,

Who need the answer of the above posting please refer to the following snapshots. According to me practically we can display and move the data in flag to another variable. Don't know it is correct or not therotically but it is possible.
Please have a look of the following and let me correct if I was wrong .
