RE: *ZERO vs *ZEROS

[Kurt Anderson <kurt.anderson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm at IBM I 7.0 and this works for me -  I set my breakpoint on *In01

     D FldA            S              1A
     D FldB            S              7S 0

      /free

       FldA = 'Y';
       FldB = 0012345;

       If FldA = 'Y'
       and FldB > *ZERO;

         *In01 = *On;

       EndIf;

       *inlr = *On;
       Return;

Subject: *ZERO vs *ZEROS

All,
I have the following code:
FldA   1A
FldB   7S 0

FldA = 'Y'
FldB = 0012345
/Free
 If FldA = 'Y'
     and FldB > *ZERO
.
.
.
.
EndIf

When I run this code using the *ZERO, the If fails and control transfers to the EndIf; When I change the code to use *ZEROS, it works fine.

Running 6.1.1.
PTF TL60215

Why does it not work with *ZERO?

Thanks,
