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

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.
