Hi Marshall

Thanks for the suggestion-- I had already tried that, and received the
following:

SQL Statement = INSERT INTO IT005P (ITEM_NUMBER) VALUES(47001)

Error: [SQL0408] Value for column or variable ITEM_NUMBER not compatible.

Which is why I was wondering if I needed to do some sort of typecasting or
conversion for the INSERT Statement.  ITEM_NUMBER is a 7-position, 0 decimals
packed field.

Any other ideas greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
