STDTRUNC / NOSTDTRUNC
- STDTRUNC applies only to USAGE BINARY data. When STDTRUNC is selected, USAGE BINARY data is truncated to the number of digits in the PICTURE clause of the BINARY receiving field. STDTRUNC is the default value.
- NOSTDTRUNC applies only to USAGE BINARY data. When NOSTDTRUNC is selected, BINARY receiving fields are truncated only at half-word, full-word, or double-word boundaries. BINARY sending fields are also handled as half-words, full-words, or double-words. Thus, the full binary content of the field is significant. Also, the DISPLAY statement will convert the entire content of a BINARY field, with no truncation.
