I'm trying to pull mainframe data into an excel spreadsheet, but the data has
packed signed data and I can't seem to find a formula that will do the conversion. If you know of a way of doing this please help. |

Can you post some examples of your packed signed data and how you
would like them to be interpreted? Pete On Nov 16, 1:56 pm, rdfred wrote: I'm trying to pull mainframe data into an excel spreadsheet, but the data has packed signed data and I can't seem to find a formula that will do the conversion. If you know of a way of doing this please help. |

Use the mainframe to convert to IEEE notation.
Or if the program is COBOL get the data out as strings (text) best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "rdfred" wrote in message ...

Hi,
Hope you are talking about comp-3 data in mainframe. You can write a sort card in mainframe itself and then convert that value as you want using editing characters, and then you can download to excel. Regards, Soundar.
