I'm trying to set a data dictionary using a proprietary technology to give a relational view of a hierarcical legacy database. The records on the database will have certain signed numeric fields that are longer than sixteen characters, the SQL manual suggests I declare them as 'COMP' so that they only take up eight bytes of physical storeage but this returns some pretty dodgy results. Am I doing something obviously wrong ?
