Suppress Leading Zeros in COBOL

Question

I have tried looking this up online but I can't find anything that matches my situation. I need to suppress the leading zeros in the output but I can't get it working correctly. The number I need to suppress is the PR-PAY-RATE.

Answer 1

In W-S

       05 FORMATTED-INTEGER          PIC Z(04)9.
       05 FORMATTED-CURRENCY         PIC Z(08)9.99.

in 700

   DISPLAY 'Total Payroll Recs : ' PAYROLL-COUNT.

becomes

   MOVE PAYROLL-COUNT TO FORMATTED-INTEGER.
   DISPLAY 'Total Payroll Recs : ' FORMATTED-INTEGER.

and follow the bouncing ball for the other display items.

MOVE TO /DISPLAY FORMATTED-CURRENCY if that's appropriate.

(and of course, identifier names are your choice). Also your choice to use a PIC of Z(02),Z(03),Z(02)9.99. if you want thousand-separator commas.

BTW - you call 700 twice - once at end-of-file, then again from the mainline. This will give you the display twice and probably an error too, sice you will be attempting to close a closed file.
