- RE: Packed data.
-
- I can do this
-
- pipe strliteral x001075667d | spec 1-* c2p | xi
- >-001075667.
- pipe strliteral x001075667d | spec 1-* c2p(2) | xi
- >-0010756.67
-
- So I don't do what you ask for (I also give the sign).
-
- Now, I hope *you* will be able to do this too some time in the future.
-
- For now, you can find packed conversion done with SPEC and XLATE in
- SQLSELECT REXX. It is touched on in SL26-0018-1 in the chapter
- about using SQL.
