Hi All,
I did a quite a bit of search to find if the output of SUM FIELDS of ZONED DECIMAL return a display number instead of a SIGNED number but could not find the exact solution.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

You're going to have to hit your manuals, talk to colleagues, local support, CA Support. I don't think many here use CA-SORT currently.

In DFSORT, option ZDPRINT would control this. It is an installation option, which can be overriden by an OPTION statement at run-time.

I'd say your best bet is the discussion of SUM in the manual, or the options which can be set at installation (often a different manual for those).

If you get an answer, please post it, as it may help someone in the future.
