Thank you Jerry, I know that if you don't specify the decimals, the
compiler assumes a character field.

That's not what I said.

Always has. If you don't specify the decimals, the compiler assumes a
character field.

I'm noticing fields defined in D-specs having Internal data type left
blank
and having Decimal positions specified, are showing as Character, as
in:

wFieldA : Character(7,0)

The compiler still assumes them to be Packed Decimal, but I'm just
sayin'...
