The CALC Option

When viewing a CORE display, overtype the TransID CORE with CALC to use the basic hexadecimal calculator function of CA InterTest for CICS. The CALC function displays the hexadecimal and equivalent decimal number for the given value on the bottom line of the screen. The current CORE display is not affected. Return to the CORE transaction by replacing CALC with CORE.

Note: When using the CALC function, the letter T, for base ten, must follow decimal numbers.
