I have complied my program using cob -iav MTFBOX40.cbl and while running using cobrun command on Linux, I am getting "Illegal character in numeric field" error, It looks like some character data is getting incorrectly passed to numberic field. The problem is I have more than 150 input fields in my commarea and it is difficult to debug the same.

The same program is working fine on windows environment

Please advise how to debug the program in linux to find root cause.


Execution error : file '/home/z993007/work/mtfbox40/MTFBOX40.int'
error code: 163, pc=3FA, call=1, seg=0
163     Illegal character in numeric field

Thanks

Anil
