prasanth_thavva,

I haven't worked on Comparex and I do not have access to the manuals. What exactly does the MASK function do?

Kolusu,

As the name indicates, MASK statement is used to mask certain variables from comparison. In this case, MASK=(031,003) is used to mask positions 31 thru 33. Any changes in this position will not be reported.

this is just an opposite of CMPCOLM in SuperC.

Thanks,
Phantom
