Yattin,

there is a builtin routine at sdk\DataType\DataTypePicComp3 which will convert a Comp-3 field into a numeric displayable one.

Sunil - a CFF stage will do this correctly, I am not sure what your issue is, but it will take a USAGE COMP-3 and convert it.

Hi,

CFF can only be used as Input stage.

We want data type to be in Comp - 3 format in target file.Bue the routines you are mentioning and CFF, can work in reverse order only
i.e. these convert Comp -3 to Any datatype.

But our requirement is reverse.

Please look at it and give me the solution.

With regards,
