Hi,

I need to first overlay a Packed decimal field of 2 bytes with a character 'SJ' and after doing my validations I need to revert it back to the original.I did the overlay from PD to character by the following ,

SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTREC OVERLAY=(3527:C'SJ')

Now how do I Overlay the character back to Packed decimal format of value '0'.

Please advise.

Regards,
C.Subramanian.

Hi,

I got the desired result by just giving the fields in OUTREC which i rquired , thereby removing the unwanted Mnemonic and retained the original PD values.
