If anyone else would like to apply 'pressure' on IBM I have reported this as a 
problem and IBM has acknowledged that it is a BUG and has created a APAR to fix 
it.

NOTE: V5R1 release level

The APAR that you could reference is: SE04519

I'm sure if others piggybacked onto this problem and others we could get IBM to 
correct at least some (there are lots....) SQL pre-compiler bugs.

What we're discussing here is different.  You are talking about how the
file stores the value and I am talking about how the RPG processes the
data.  Perhaps my file was created as a DEC and not a INT.  Who cares?  The
point is that the SQLRPGLE could not store this into a 10i field because
the precompiler decided to make my 10i work field a 9b field.
Or is your point that not only is this stupidity in the precompiler but in
the database itself?

Rob,

Well that's interesting.  I get a different result.  Here's what I did and
the result:

1. create table qtemp/phil (fld1 integer not null with default)

2. dspffd qtemp/phil

  FLD1       BINARY       9  0       4         1        Both     FLD1
