Aargh! "Nybbles" me dummy. :-) (And I know how this is going to go: The word "nybbles" will be debated to death on IBM-MAIN now. TGIF. :-) )

So with ‘45’ the First 5 nibbles of the rest are before the point. I’m wondering what this field is that it should have a fractional part. (I guess I should look it up.)
