Re: How to extract information from packed fields from AS400 in java!

[ashaikhhafiz@xxxxxxxxx]

No!
it is a packed field which has the data corresponding to more than 1
entity. eg. like the details of the employee are stored in a single packed
field and i have to extract the employee no,employee name.....etc.
Thnx & Regards

Are you talking about a packed decimal number?  The Toolbox for Java has a
class that converts between Java numeric types and AS/400 packed decimal
numbers.
