I have a database that was created via DDS and I'm trying to change a
zoned decimal field via a SQL statement. The statement is being executed
from interactive (STRSQL) SQL.
The field definition is :

PREMDUE ZONED 11 2 11 25 Both PREMDUE

When I look at other posiive values via DSPPFM and toggle to hex I see the
sign value, positive or negative.
Such as, if the value was +2683.55 then the hex value is F2F6F8 F3F5C5 or
if it was -2683.55 then the hex value would be F2F6F8 F3F5D5.

When I try to issue my SQL command :

UPDATE table name SET PREMDue = +2683.55 WHERE blah blah = whatever

In hex, I see F2F6F8 F3F5F5

or when I try a negative value, I see F2F6F8 F3F5D5

So, my question is, why don't I see the C5 for the positive but rather, I
see a F5 instead.
