First of all s9(17) comp-3 will occupy 9 bytes and X(19) has
19 bytes of memory.
When we move the text value to an comp-3 field, we will get
Soc7 error. We cannot move alpha values to numeric fields.
If the X(17) contain numeric values then we can move this
field to s(17) comp-3 field and we can move only 9 bytes
other data will be trucated.
