I downloaded the latest version for V5R1 (we are at V5R2) and encountered a problem that was not there before (I have been using the same file to test). Packed 13,4 value of 950,833.0000 was showing up correctly as 950,833.0000, now it is being converted as
95,083,300,000,000,000,000,000.0000

  Problem solved for V5R3 version
  
  the program UNPACK:
  c*                  Eval      %Subst(ZoneOut:EndPos:StrPos)=%Trim(Zoned
  c                   EvalR     ZoneOut=Zoned
  
  wrong stmt commented with '*' should be:
  c                   Eval      %Subst(ZoneOut:EndPos:StrPos)=%Trim(Zoned
  c*                  EvalR     ZoneOut=Zoned
