Re: Qcmdexc

Tommy,

This may be true Rob but this has been this way since RPG III (maybe
> even RPG II...been a while...)

For the record, RPG II defaults stand-alone numeric fields to zoned instead
of packed. This causes the need to jump through extra hoops when calling
between RPG II and RPG III/IV programs.

Data structure subfields default to zoned, unless otherwise specified. (And
in RPG II, numeric subfields of a DS had to be zoned. You could not define
them as P or B.)
