| Free-Form Syntax | Decimal-position parameter of the data-type keyword or parameter of the TIMESTAMP keyword |

This entry can only be supplied in combination with the TO/Length field. If the TO/Length field is blank, the value of this entry is defined somewhere else in the program (for example, through an externally described data base file).
The decimal positions entry can also be used to specify the number
of fractional seconds for a timestamp.
If the length of the timestamp is not specified, you can specify
a between zero and twelve fractional seconds.
If you specify zero fractional seconds, the length of the
timestamp will be 19.
If you specify between one and twelve fractional seconds, the
length of the timestamp will be 20 plus the number of fractional
seconds.
