In interactive SQL, numerics by default display with commas for the
thousands separator. Is there a way to lose the commas?
Note that I'm using SELECT * FROM CUSTMAST, and I really don't want
to list every field in the file to have to use DIGITS(CUSTNO).
I looked at changing the session attributes (F13), where you get
choices for the decimal point, and for date & time format /
separators, but nothing for thousands' separators.
If CUSTMAST is created from DDS, then specify an Edit Word [EDTWRD]
or Edit Code [EDTCDE] on the DDS for the field; editing which does not
include thousands separators. And although that will assist with the
Query/400 report writer [which is the report writer for *LOCAL displayed
and printed reports], changing the field editing will unlikely have any
effect on\for output from other report writers.
There is also a message CPX2D06 which defines the /default editing/
for fields that have no editing in the DDS. IIRC there is something
like a 4=*NONE for thousand separator in the /editing/ option for a
field definition in WRKDTADFN. Best to use your own message file and
OVRMSGF QCPFMSG TOFILE(yourMSGF), after having done a MRGMSGF of the
selected message; i.e. change only a copy of the message, as changes to
the original could cause serious errors.
