Hi ram,
Comp-3 variables are generally used for high storage
efficiency. They are stored in packed decimal format
internally.So, display is possible only when the packed
decimal item is moved to a numeric edited item.

I have two questions here. 1. How to read a flat file in reverse order? 2. How to read a VSAM KSDS file in reverse order? In both the cases we donot know the total number of records.
