This is not the case as far as I can tell.

                Yes, it's the default, but you're not using the default
here: you've 
                specified *DEC (3 0) in the CL and PARM 3 0 in the RPG.  I
think Dennis R 
                hit the nail on the head when he mentioned data structures.
See if your 
                RPG program is putting the parm in a DS.  If it is, then the
DS will 
                change the definition from PACK to ZONE - check the compile
listing to 
                verify this.
