This is sort of an RPG thing, but really more of a DB2 issue, which is why I posted it here.

Dave Odom ought to love this. It may have been discussed before, but I didn't find it. Anyway, if you declare a field in SQL as type INT, it is actually declared in DB2 as a 9B0 field. This is fine right up until the time you try to write a value over 999,999,999. For example: 1,198,368,000, which is the number of seconds between January 1, 2008 and January 1, 1970.

Such joy.
