Positions 33-42 (Factor 2)

Factor 2 names a field or gives the actual data (literals) on which a calculation is to be done. For the file operation codes, factor 2 names a file or record format to be used. The entry must begin in position 33. The entries that are valid for factor 2 depend on the operation code specified in positions 28 through 32. With some operation codes, a colon can be used to separate parts of the factor, but must be preceded by and followed by a valid entry. For the specific entries for factor 2 for a particular operation code, see Operation Codes.
