Re: Issue with display file

If there is room on the file, one of the guys here uses an indicator to  show a 
'-' . He is a firm believer in indicators. Its probably ot the  cleanest code, 
but it works for him.

have played with this some for the past couple of days to no avail.

I have tried using several edit codes, changing the data type to type "S" 
but nothing I have tried seems to work.

It is imperative that the field display the negative number, even if the 
system knows what it is behind the scenes.

Here is the current field dds:

A            DTMPFRM        2Y 0B 11 28COLOR(TRQ)
A                                      CHECK(FE) 
A                                      CHECK(RB) 
A                                      EDTCDE(N) 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
