22.9.4 Decimal String Data Types
CDD/Repository supports the following forms of decimal
string data types:
.
LEFT OVERPUNCHED NUMERIC
.
LEFT SEPARATE NUMERIC
.
RIGHT OVERPUNCHED NUMERIC
.
RIGHT SEPARATE NUMERIC
.
PACKED DECIMAL
.
UNSIGNED NUMERIC
.
ZONED NUMERIC
BASIC supports only the PACKED DECIMAL decimal string
data type, which corresponds to the BASIC DECIMAL data
type. For all other decimal string data types, BASIC creates a
group with the same name as the CDD/Repository subordi-
nate field, and creates a string record component to contain
the field. For example:
