<snip> My data is SR01 = 3000 and ER01 = 30DF
If (&SR01 > &ER01) .MSG = DRM001 I get the message saying SR01 is greater than 30DF and I cannot determine why. It is almost like it is ignoring the rules for Hexidecimal data. SR01.... Pool (S) .... - ISPYX211 VALUE(3000) ..CHG by SELECT - ISPYX212 ER01.... Pool (S) .... - ISPYX211 VALUE(30DF) ..CHG by SELECT - ISPYX212 </snip> While in hex, x'3000' is definitely less than x'30DF' . But when represented as a character string, c'3000' = x'F3F0F0F0' which is greater than c'30DF' = x'F3F0C4C6'.
