I ran into a copybook which uses 9(5).99-, and apparently that doesn't get recognized as a numeric field. I'm having a go at fixing this, and if I succeed I'll pass on the changes.

      Indeed that was where I had got to. It's not as easy as I had hoped (I fixed checkPictureNumeric to accept that type of picture, but they came back as right-justified decimals (type 6) instead of type 10), so I don't think the conversion would have happened correctly... but I think it's doable.

      While I'm working on that (on my own time) I'm adding a special case to my own code that checks for fields with trailing "-" and if they're otherwise parseable as Java numbers... do so.

      Will let you have a look at it,

      If you want a hint, have a look in:

    There will need to be changes in getTypeIdentifier in basic conversion

    and finally there is a bug in the class TypeSignSeparate that needs to fixed. It only affects the updating of fields; I will do this.

    Correction TypeSignSeparate is correct
