The link to the V5R1 manuals really helped...

Thanks

The RPG Reference has your answer - V5R1 InfoCenter is at
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r1/ic2924/info/rzahgicmain.htm -

I think that it has to be numeric, not alpha, at V5R1 - numeric came
later, maybe V5R2.

BTW, I keep links to the Online Library and InfoCenter all the way back
to V3R2 - some of the early manuals are better, IMO.

The following code produces a compile time error:

*RNF0327 30 1 The first parameter for %DEC or %DECH is not valid.



The definition of TWWSECT is:

155=I A 2 5 TWSSECT
SECT



Code:

If %Dec(TwSSect : 4 : 0) = *Zero





Does anyone have a working example of using this BIF in V5R1.



TIA
