Hello, all.

Can anyone tell me how to string a " into a field?  The " is used itself 
in the string command, so if I try STRING " " " delimited by size etc, the 

compiler/editor will not accept it.

Any good ideas?

Code the hex value into a Working-Storage variable and then String that 
named variable delimited by size.

Hi Geir,
you have 2 option depending on the string delimited you use in your 
program.
If the delimiter is " then the correct statement is:
                 STRING """" DELIMITED BY SIZE INTO FIELD-A.
Otherwise if the delimiter is ' then the correct statement is:
                 STRING '"' DELIMITED BY SIZE INTO FIELD-A.

Remember that you can use any combination of the delimiters " or ' in a
given cobol statement.

Bye, Roy.

Thanks Domenico.

The single ' worked together wit the double " as long as I used them 
consequently thru the whole STRING-sentence(it was long...)
