RE: Question of retreiving the negative value in the program

Hello Mate,

I don't wish to sound rude but has your company given you any training in RPG 
at all? I think a few courses would help you out and would save a lot of 
frustration and time. I imagine you have looked at this for quite a while 
before coming on here.

Subject: Question of retreiving the negative value in the program


Hi
 
How to retreive the neagtive value entered by the user from the screen to the 
program.
I have a numeric field Var1. If I enter a value as -100, inside the program i 
am getting the value as 100. So the condition for negative valued gets skipped.
I have alos tried few Editcodes and but i ends in vain.
Could anyone tell me how to capture the negative values (entered in the screen) 
 inside the RPFLE program.
 
 
Thanks
Hari
