Blank Editing

The blank editing descriptors control the interpretation of embedded and trailing blanks within numeric input fields. These descriptors have no effect during execution of output statements.

Within a format specification, a blank editing descriptor affects all subsequent I, B, O, Z, F, E, EN, ES, D, and G descriptors until another blank editing descriptor occurs.

The blank editing descriptors override the effect of the BLANK specifier during execution of a particular input data transfer statement. For more information, see the BLANK specifier in OPEN statements.
