Re: weird numeric field display problem...

I didn't until you mentioned it.  Originally, when I created this field in
SDA, I just specified the Keyboard shift attribute of 'Y', and when SDA
returned to the work screen, it showed the field as "999.9999", so I
thought I was done.  

I added EDTCDE(3) and all is well.  Still, I wonder why SDA displayed it
the way it did.  ?????????

Thanks James!
