Thanks Chuck, for pointing out what was right there.
The pointer for the DS must be off.

what am I missing? This has been running many years, and not new

Eval WPkgID(PkgCounter) = WorkPackageID

values from dump

WPKGID ZONED(9,0) DIM(10)
(1) 005864648.
(2-10) 000000000.

(one of many fields in a DS)
WORKPACKAGEID BIN(9,0) -026960399. 'C2C9D3F1'X

Do not look at the /number/ for WorkPackageID because its
representation can not present an overflowed value. Instead, look at
the hex values which is the 4-byte /binary/ value of the string 'BIL1'
which is suspiciously going to have come from a character string.... and
is a *very* large\10-digit negative value.
