<DIV></DIV>>I'm working in an IBM OS/390 environment. I'm trying to 'read' the lower
<DIV></DIV>>half of a 1 character (byte).
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>Example the 1 byte contains the value 'A2'. The character 'A' in the upper
<DIV></DIV>>half of the byte and the number '2' in the lower part of the byte, which is
<DIV></DIV>>an unprintable character. I have managed to read and print the whole
<DIV></DIV>>byte,(with this newsgroups help). What I need to do is to test the lower
<DIV></DIV>>half of the byte. In other words
<DIV></DIV>>If lower-half-of-byte = '2'
<DIV></DIV>> Then do something;
<DIV></DIV>> else nothing;
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>Any help appreciated
