Hi,

This can be done if you transfer the variable to a character type variable and concatenate '-' sign before it.

Hi,

Do like this,,,

data ll type p decimals 2.

ll = '222.33'.
ll = - ll.

           .
 write ll.

and to get this '-' sign in front try like this..

data : ll type p decimals 2,
       l(20) .

ll = '222.33'.
ll = - ll.
l = ll.
 CALL FUNCTION 'CLOI_PUT_SIGN_IN_FRONT'
   CHANGING
     value         = l
           .
 write l.
