Re: Binary fields in DB2 and RPG

Uhh... perhaps I am just misreading this... you mean RPG declares the integer field as 9B0, right?

create table wtf (val int)
insert into wtf values(1234567890)
select * from wtf

you get back the 1,234,567,890

Yup, Scott cleared that up for me. Even though DSPFFD shows the field as 9B0, it's really an integer. I got further confused when I went into DDS and of course could only create a type B field, not an integer. But in the end, everything worked out <grin>.
