The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
No definitive answer, but a few things to consider...
1) Rather than DBU, what does "select * from aeplaltsiz" show? I
imagine same as DBU, but it's worth checking.
2) All the fields in the file are defined a zoned, Which has a sign in
the left nibble if the rightmost byte. I'm wondering where the source
data is coming from and how it is signed. Note that the field that
appears to be correct has some calculations done on it, so maybe that is
straightening out the sign on that field.
3) I know some folks like using zoned because the data is displayed
easily in DSPFFM (?) but I've always used packed, which works faster and
uses less disk space. What happens if you change the file fields to packed?
