What is the difference between Missover Truncover and pad

Ankita — Mon, 09 May 2016 16:23:44 GMT

Hi All,

Please help me with the difference between Missover Truncover and pad.

Also Is there any method by which we can declare all variables in a file in input statement in one go?

Thanks and regards,

Ankita Roy

You will have to provide some details on what you mean by:

Always use Truncover, don't use Missover+Pad which is very older than Truncover, and more important at sometime when you use Missover + COLUMN INPUT METHOD will generate the error result.
