Morning everyone,

I have a display file with numeric fields defined as 7,2 (EDTCDE 1)  When
these fields have no value in them, they display ____.00      The user
doesn't like the zeros and for the life of me, I can't figure out how to
display *Blanks in the fields (without having to make them character fields
and convert, convert, convert!)
