I am trying to use pipes to retrieve data from a sql table.
I have several fields which are SMALLINT.
Whether I pipe them to a file, variable, or screen, they do not
return a numerical value, but rather an EBCDIC character, such as a
cent sign or an "n" with a tilde.
 Does anyone have any ideas  ??  Thanks...
