It looks like youre compiling to V5R2, but the error message is from a
later release.

Cheers,

Subject: Numeric value defined as 63 digits actually greater than 63
digits?

Folks:

This probably has an obvious answer ... but I'm only on my first cup of
coffee ... so you'll have to take it easy on me.

I've got a field defined in a qualified data structure that's 63 digits
with 0 decimal positions ... but when I compile it, I get the following
error:

447 D sequenceValue DS qualified

448 D exists N

449 D start 63 0

450

*RNF0503 20 449 000142 Length of numeric item START is greater than
63 digits;
defaults to 63.


I'm sure I'm missing something obvious ... but what is it?

Thanks!

david
