I need to write a program that takes input from a data file, and then uses pic clauses to edit that data to appear a certain way.
Do I still use the file section to describe the input and output (report) records in data division?
Where do I write the pic clauses that edit the data, and where do I write the move statements?
Basically, I need to know how to take an input file, and then how to write the code to edit that to appear specifically the way the desired report looks. It's just figuring out the right pic clauses to get desired results.
I just need to know where to code this?
Thanks
