Can overlaying the output be an issue?

Just for fun, try edit code N for left side minus sign and see if
things wander around in such a way as to tell you what is happening?

HI I have a report that includes some negative numbers. I use the edit

code "J". I have looked at the output spec on Debug, and it Evals as a
Negative num.

But it prints as non negative.

Aside from if the minus sign is being overshadowed by the adjacent

field, which to the best of my knowledge is not the problem, is there some
other reason to considier here, why it would not print as a neg.

Thank you,
