I have a source program compiled with Cobol-2. The output
file has a record length of 100 defined in the program but
a record of 60 bytes getting written into it. i.e. The rest
of 40 bytes I am not Writing anything. But it by default
puts some values into the last 40 bytes. However it does
not impact anything. But when Compiled the module with
Enterprise Cobol the last 40 bytes were spaces as fillers.
Can anyone explain?

I think you ppl are hitting on wrong direction for
answering this question. The question doesn't seem to be
asking how to resolve a junk character, instead it's asking
about the different behaviour of the same program in two
different versions of Cobol - COBOLII and Enterprise COBOL.
One is placing junk characters in the last 40 bytes and the
other one intialized it to spaces. Any possible answer from
anyone now...?
