COBCH1021 Slack bytes added in conversion of COMP-6 to COMP

You are using a program converted from RM/COBOL that contains a COMP-6 numeric data item which has been converted to a COMP numeric data item. As a result of this conversion, less data space might have been allocated to the numeric data item and, therefore, your COBOL system adds leading binary zeros to pad the space, if required.
