Issue/Introduction

I am receiving the following compiler error. What is the limit for the length of packed fields? 

fieldname W 16 P 

EZTC0227E >>> $ must be from 1 to 10 

Environment

Release: EDBMSU00200-11.6-Easytrieve-Report Generator-Option for DB2-MSU
Component:

Resolution

The limit for the length of packed fields is still 10 bytes at this time. Defining fields to be 10 bytes or less for the packed field will resolve the EZTC0227E compiler error.
