RE: Testing for valid numeric in an alpha field

.

Dan:

Just an example on IF's in COBOL:


IF A                    = X
     IF B                       = Y
          IF C          = Z
        DO SOMETHING 
         END-IF
     END-IF
END-IF.

The END-IF's just make the code easier to read....

Mvh.
