RE: converting string to a numeric

Hmmm, there is an "X" edit code.  Yet the table in the display file
reference manual
(http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r2/ic2924/index.htm?info/rzakc/rzak
cmst02.htm) does not show it even though it does state there are edit codes
between "W" and "Z" inclusive.  I guess it was left out of the table because
it doesn't actually do any editing. 

That's what I get for just looking at the table.  Thanks, Aaron.
