yes you can..use REDEFINES for the same purpose.

Working storage section:-
01 WS-VARX PIC X(9) VALUE SPACES.
01 WS-VARN REDEFINES WS-VARX PIC 9(9).

Now you can move X(9) variable to WS-VARX.Eventually it is
moved to the 9(9) variable WS-VARN.

Our issue is there seems to be a disconnect, or no link, between our SELECT statement and our SD. We had SELECT SORT-FILE and SELECT SORT-FILE ASSIGN TO SORTWRK. ASSIGN TO SORTWRK1 SORTWRK2 SORTWRK3 SORTWRK4. with SD SORT_FILE RECORD CONTAINS 7833 CHARACTERS. In either case, at run time, the system ignored our SORTWRK# DD statements and allocated 16 sort works with the SORTWK## naming convention. Any ideas why the system does not recognize the connection? We do not even need the SORTWRK DD statements. Thanks
