I remember Tony had a 'rant' about input and output conversions some time
ago either on here or on cdp - anyway there are two slots in the dict one
for input and one for output conversions. You need to use att 3 i think ..

Subject: [U2] Select Field Comparisons

I ran across a situation that I know I've seen before but wasn't sure how to
resolve it.

The data field has internal date as the data.  The dictionary is defined
with
a conversion of DQ to display the quarter.  That works just fine for lists.
When I tried SELECT BILLS WITH QUARTER = "1" it would not select the records
that were just listed.

To get around this we created and I-descriptor with an OCONV and same
conversion, DQ, and no conversion definition.  That work fine.

Is this standard or am I forgetting a trick of the trade?
