Hello Joep,

TBLRRN is defined as a 4 byte integer; in RPG that is a 10 digit integer. You might try 10Y 0 in de display file.

This did not work. Apparently no on the fly conversion.

If that doesn't work, you'll have to use different names and move TBLRRN to the display file field.

That worked. Thanks! After being used to numeric field widths being defined like char fields (number of positions), I was blind on the Bytes-eye.

:wq! PoC
