Barbara, Hans, others,

I am moving towards the QUSLFLD solution you and others have mentioned.
However, in my development testing, I am being reminded that TESTN does not
work on numeric fields.  So now I have to move the numeric value to an alpha.
I will follow a tip that someone else shared last month:

     C                     MOVE *ZEROS    WORK## 31
     C                     MOVELHDRSWP    WORK##
     C                     TESTN          WORK##     91
     C                     MOVE *ZEROS    WORK##
     C                     MOVELHDRDTM    WORK##
     C                     TESTN          WORK##     92
     C... etc. for several more fields

But I am left wondering, since it is possible for numeric variables to DDEs,
why wasn't TESTN ever designed to work with both alpha and numeric variables?
