Subject: [EXTERNAL] Four bytes field with bit manipulated
Dear All
I have a 4 byte field which represent total length of a data in a message and the length is specified using bits.
When I move this 4 byte field to 1500 character field it drops some of data from original 4 byte field
Ex if my 4 byte field contains below
00000000 00000000 00000000 01110011
When I move this to 1500 character field this shows as
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000001
I use free format RPG in 7.2 box any idea why this is happening.
Chamara.
