Hi all,
I am working on a project where I will receive a Packed decimal field from mainframe. I need to unpack the packed decimal and move the value to another variable how to do this?.
On the receiving end I dont know whether I need to receive it as bytes or stream or string?
I appriciate your help in this.
Thanks, Muru.
