Hi Suv,
If u code S9(14) COMP, it will take double word i.e. 8
bytes. Below is the size of comp variables.
S9(01) - S9(04) : 2 BYTES.
S9(05) - S9(09) : 4 BYTES.
S9(10) - S9(18) : 8 BYTES.

how do you reference the esds vsam file formats from cobol programs
I have a program with an Array of 5000 occurences which is being passed from 5 sub levels to the front end screen. Thess 5 programs using each 5*2 = 10 different arrays with size as 5000. This is causing the transaction to utilize more storage consupmtion. I am looking to reduce the storage consumption. As part of that initially i thought Dynamic array may solve my problem. After viewing the comments given i see its same as normal array. IS there any other way we can resolve this issue?
