If you code DECPREC(63) in your CTL-OPT, you'll get the decimal
positions in the output of %CHAR.


Thanks, Barbara. That worked but then it gives me way too many
digits to the right of the decimal place. Is there a way to specify the
number of decimal positions I want using a non-constant variable?


I just read your post again. If you don't want to hard-code the number of decimal positions, I think you're going to have to do some post-processing on the string.
