RE: negative numbers in Client Access

["DeLong, Eric" <EDeLong@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Robert, did you read the page from the manual that I posted?  <deleted
stuff>

Change your Y to S, and take out the EDTCDE line.

The field is defined as:

A            TQTY           7Y 0B  6 16CHECK(FE)
A                                      EDTCDE(M)
A  41                                  ERRMSG('Error... Invalid quantity
e-
A                                      ntered' 41)
A                                      CHECK(RB)

I typed in 100 and field minus and it still came back as 10}.  This is
something
we've been living with forever.  I was just seeing if there was a quick
fix for it.

Subject: negative numbers in Client Access

When entering a negative number, we use the - key on the numeric keypad
part of the keyboard.  When doing so, the 
number and/or sign will change to a letter, or the {, or some other
character.  Is there some setting in client access, 
iSeries access, System I Access, etc. to prevent this?
