When you create a DTAARA, you do not have the option to pack the
numeric, it will be zoned.

Subject: Data Area Problem.

I have a strange problem.  I want to create an external data area that
is 5,2 packed and I want to get it into an RPG/IV.  When I attempt to do
this, I always get a size mismatch error. Can anyone tell me what I need
to do to be able to use the data area in an RPG/IV program?
