I wonder about your statement - data structures can be used as host
structures for SQL.. Then the data structure is not returned as such, the
subfields are handles separately, IIRC.
Someone please verify!

That seems like a bad idea in the first place...SQL has no support for

I see they have a mix of result sets (data structures) that have packed
fields in them. My practice has always been to define the fields in a
data
structure for a result set as character.
The developer of the calling apps could not give me a proper answer so I

going to bounce the question here.
Does the system convert packed fields to zoned or character fields?
I assume it can based on the CCSIDs in use.
What is the best practice?
