Jim,

 

It's great, but it's exactly what Susie advised you to do, she even sent the 
explaination document.

Here's another way of formatting the string portion: 

return String.format("%05d", recLen); 

I ended up using the above and by strongly impressing upon the COBOL people the 
error of there ways when defining the field as a numeric I got my own way. 
....and I only had to hold my breath for 10 minutes. Sometimes when you don't 
have to look at the bewildered looks upon others faces you can accomplish lots.
