IN DE.FORMAT.PRINT, THERE'S CALUCLATION FUNCTION.

AFTER I GET THE 'TOTAL.1' NUMBER

I WANT TO MAKE "TOTAL.1" NUMBER TO A NUMBER WITH PERCENTAGE SIGN.

EX:

TOTAL.1 = 0.66
I TRIED TO PUT % IN 'MASK' IT SHOWS LIKE 0.66%

BUT I WANT A NUMBER 66.67%

Setting MASK to % is defined as :
Print "%" after the data

So you have to make your TOTAL.1 look like you want beforehand, e.g.
FIELD..TEXT	"100.00"
CONVERSION 	*,TOTAL.1
MASK		%

When I put "100" in FIELD/"TEXT" and "*,TOTAL.1" in Calculation, , the "100" becomes a TEXT but not a NUMBER..

Therefore, the system shows "CALCULATION.36 TOTAL INVALID FOR TEXT" after I click validate

Havent tried myself, maybe without quotes, use a I-DESC etc...

And worst you can use a routine :

@xxxxxxx
Where xxxxxxx is a user-created subroutine to carry out customised conversions. The subroutine must exist in PGM.FILE as a type ‘S’ record. The leading ‘@’ character must be entered before the subroutine name or it will not be recognised. The arguments used in calling the subroutine are xxxxxxx (IN.FIELD, HEADER.REC, MV.NO, OUT.FIELD, ERROR.MSG), where
IN.FIELD – unconverted data from calling routine
HEADER.REC – dynamic variable containing current Header record from calling routine
MV.NO – Current value number for carrier address (references Header record) from calling routine
OUT.FIELD – converted data from subroutine
ERROR.MSG - text error message generated by subroutine. If this is not null on return from the subroutine, the calling program will abort the conversion and place the message in the Repair queue.

Hi
put there DEBUG statement and start tSM with -DEBUG parameter. Then start your tSA in another session.

Cheers
