Is this the COBOL unsigned decimal format - PIC 9(4) PACKED-DECIMAL/COMP-3 which would be 0nnnnF in 3 bytes or a special format where just nnnn is stored. If it is the former all that is needed in COBOL is a simple MOVE between field with the appropriate pictures? Otherewise the other posters have made good suggestions.
