<p>If

a data type is not specified for the field and is not duplicated from a referenced

field, DDS assigns a default depending on the value in the decimal positions

(positions 36 and 37). If the decimal positions are blank, a default of character

(A) is assigned. If the decimal positions contain a number in the range 0
