I was hoping to do this in SQL so that I can then do a LIKE '%12345%'
where 12345 is the string in the packed decimal field so I can globally
find all string values across all tables that contain that packed decimal
value.

I don't think that EXTJRNDTA would do that since it is on a file by file
basis and would take days to go through hundreds of files on a file by file
basis like that.
