Suppose i want to declare a binary comp fild of 7 byte .how
to write?

Answer Posted / ankit

hi i think you cannot declare binary comp of 7 bytes
exactly as the comp variable are fixed to half(2 bytes)
word,full word(4 bytes) and double word(8 bytes), so you
need to choose the paricular comp variable to use ok
correct me if i am wrong
