Short text

Contents of work area w/selection in log. data base
Tip-No.: 951

Symptom

The work areas of tables in a logical data base are filled with
HEX0 instead of being initial.

Cause

Internal processing logic of the logical data bases:
After a segment and its sub-segments have been processed, the work area
of this segment is filled with HEX0 (for internal reasons, currently
for the EXTRACT and LOOP processing). This value remains, even after
the data base selection is completed, until the work area is filled
again.

Solution

If these contents are not desired after a data base delection, the
work area should be explicitly deleted at the END-OF-SELECTION
(exactly: after the last EXTRACT instruction).
