7.3.2.2 Unformatted Direct Access WRITE Statement

The unformatted direct access WRITE statement retrieves binary values from internal storage and writes those values to a user- specified external record accessed under the direct mode of access. The values are not translated.

If the values specified by the I/O list do not fill the output record being written, the unused portion of the record is filled with zeros. If the values do not fit in the record, an error occurs.
