Text: Slack bytes added in conversion of COMP-6 to COMP
Explanation: You are using a program converted from RM/COBOL that
contains a COMP-6 numeric data item which has been
converted to a COMP numeric data item. As a result of
this conversion, less data space may have been
allocated to the numeric data item and, therefore,
your COBOL system adds leading binary zeros to pad the
space, if required.
