I have learned that it is never a good idea to pass numerics to or from a CL program.  But I always forget why it doesn't work.  Something to do with how it is stored in memory.

Hi All,

Did anyone ever run into problems when sending parameters from an RPG program to a CL program using a PLIST? In my PLIST I have two numeric fields (P10PRD 2,0 and P10YR 4,0). I keep getting a Decimal-Data Error.

Message . . . . :   Decimal-data error occurred (C G D F).                    
                                                                             
Cause . . . . . :   RPG procedure TMX210B1 in program JACOSTA/TMX210B1 found a
  decimal-data error at statement *INIT. A packed or zoned value does not    
  contain valid numeric data.  A digit and/or sign is not valid.
