There's TESTN but you have to keep in mind that '1N' is a valid number 
according to testn.

Zoned to Decimal and Back






Hi all, 

I have a Zoned field that is a part of a Data Structure. I would like to 
copy the value of the zoned field into a Char field and Vice Versa. What 
is the proper way to do this without getting decimal data error under any 
circumstances ? 

Some times the Zoned field could have blank values. Is this possible ? Or 
should i make sure there is atleast a 0.0 value in the zone field ?

Thanks
Narsi
