You define an integer field by specifying the INT
keyword in a free-form definition, or by specifying I
in the Data-Type entry of the
appropriate specification. You can also define an integer field using the
LIKE keyword on a definition specification where the parameter is an integer
field.
2-byte integer subfields are aligned on a 2-byte boundary; 4-byte integer subfields are aligned along a 4-byte boundary; 8-byte integer subfields are aligned along an 8-byte boundary. For more information on aligning integer subfields, see ALIGN.
