RE: minus sign in a numeric screen field

["Rubino, Jim" <Jim.Rubino@xxxxxxxx>]

Is your field in the dds for the screen a type S or something else?
The S is for a signed numeric.

Subject: minus sign in a numeric screen field

This must be a *doh* question.  I must be having a brain flat.  I have
looked and can not find examples.   I am feeling really stupid about
now.

I have a field that is numeric on the screen.  How does one set the
screen so that a enter(-) is not a "}" on the screen?  I use an edit
code, but that is only effective after the screen is processed and
rewritten.
