Check your default (Display format for numbers) must be decimal separators.....

Hi Medha

This is the logic behind working of the program-

DATA number TYPE i VALUE -1234.

1. If u try to write number now it will show u the o/p 1234 -.

WRITE: 'number=',number.(o/p value 1234-)

2. WRITE 6789.

This statement will write 6,789.Because it is a numeric literal.

If u want to write 6789 as it is then put the 6789 in single quotes.( ' 6789' )

3. MOVE 100 TO number

after this statement number variable will contain the value 100 rather than -1234.

Please reward the point if useful.
