In my mainframe file I have one numeric field 00000008431.00, I want to print as it is on my file using SAS but no informat in my knowledge is doing that.
Used ZD15.2 (No luck); PD (I want values in normal display format); 15.2 (It is printing without zeros i.e. 8431.00).
Which informat will be useful for this?
Input Desired Output
00000008431.00 00000008431.00
