RE: Question of retreiving the negative value in the program

Hari,
Did you check to see if the field was signed?   Is it getting lost in
the program when you move to another field?  This typically should not
happen.  Can you please give more details as to how you have defined the
field in the display file/ program / dds?
Thanks,
Sudha

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
