S9(18) Comp-3

Answer / smita padhy

The maximum length of a computational item is 18 decimal
digits, except
for a PACKED-DECIMAL item. If the ARITH(COMPAT) compiler
option is in
effect, then the maximum length of a PACKED-DECIMAL item is
18 decimal
digits. If the ARITH(EXTEND) compiler option is in effect,
then the
maximum length of a PACKED-DECIMAL item is 31 decimal
digits.

Answer / nihar ranjan karan

If you use the compiler option ARITH(EXTEND) then you can
have a maximum of 31 digits.

Look up the compiler option ARITH in manual... you will get
some more info also...
