Hi,
I have used many method to display COMP-3 value in report, like
METHOD 1:
01 A PIC S9(15)V USAGE COMP-3.
01 B PIC S9(15)V.
MOVE A TO B
WRITE FILE-REC.
METHOD 2:
01 A PIC S9(15)V USAGE COMP-3.
01 B PIC S9(15)V.
COMPUTE A = A* 3
MOVE A TO B
WRITE FILE-REC.
Still i'm not getting proper value in the report, its displaying in hexa formate. Please advice to get me the numeric format.
Regards,
Rithu.

Rithu,
unless you use an edit mask, or display with sign trailing, you will always have numeric signed with an 'overprint' sign - i.e., the sign and the least significant digit will be combined.
change 01 B PIC S9(15)V.
to 01 B PIC -Z(15). <<<< to zero suppress with leading sign if negative
this is an edit mask
or 01 B PIC S9(15) SIGN TRAILING SEPARATE. <<<< no suppression, sign is trailing.
this is a numeric display field with trailing sign. 16 char.
an edit mask can be the receiving operand of a COMPUTE statement.
COMPUTE B = A * 3
