I'm trying to recall IBM's specifications on size contraints, if any, for
packed data fields. For some reason, I thought packed data was limited to
15 digits, but I can't be sure about this and I'm seeing some data fields
that seem to support larger field sizes.

I'm curious as to what this has to do with security.
