Fixed Insertion Editing
The fixed insertion characters are the currency symbol (cs) and the editing
sign control symbols:
+ -
CR and DB. Only one currency symbol and only
one editing control symbol can be used in a given PICTURE string. CR and
DB must be tbe rightmost character positions in the item; they are each
counted as two character positions in determining the size of the item. The
symbol
+
or - must be either the leftmost or the rightmost character position
in the item. The currency symbol must be the leftmost character position
unless it is preceded by a
+
or a -. The
+,
the -, and the currency symbol
are each counted in determining the size of the item.
Fixed insertion editing results in the insertion of the editing symbol in the
same position in the item as it occupied in the PICTURE. The result depends
on the value of the item:
