Use this field-level keyword to specify that the OS/400 program is to ignore any edit code or edit word keywords specified for the referenced field. If a field description is referred to from a database file, DLTEDT prevents certain information from being referenced.
This keyword has no parameters.
This keyword is valid only when you specify R in position 29 for this field, and also specify either the REF or the REFFLD keyword.
If replacement edit information is needed, specify the EDTCDE or the EDTWRD for the field you define. The new keyword overrides the editing from the referenced field. In this case, you do not need to specify DLTEDT.
Option indicators are not valid for this keyword.
Example:
The following example shows how to specify the DLTEDT keyword.
