Hi

I am facing following error

APT_Decimal::operator=: the source decimal has even precision, but non-zero in the leading nybble, or is too large for the destination decimal.

source destination field are of length 5 with scale 2 and destination are files where field are of length 7 and scale and 1 file has field of length 5 with scale 2

for one field I am doing some calculation and its going in destination field

let me know how can I resolve this issue ?

Thanx in advance

First question - did you search for your message? An exact search here for "the source decimal has even precision, but non-zero in the leading nybble" turned up 14 matches, several of which were marked as resolved.

Also, please try to re-state your question. Do you have one or more fields in the source file which are Decimal(5,2) and going to Decimal(7,1)?

Please make it clear.
