CFF Stage

I am trying to read an EBCDIC file using CFF stage. I saw period (.) after every decimal value if I view CFF or write in to a sequential file. Please help?

Its only when you view data in DS will you see the dot.
If you write it to a file, it wont be a dot.

(But be carefull when converting decimal to char the dot might persist...hint: do a proper substring)

Is it on the 'view data' option? Maybe the value is shrinked to fit the size and hence the dot. Did you view via any editor?

Thanks, There is a period for all decimal values in the file like 1234. This period appears in CFF view as well as in the sequential file.
