Edit code X causes a blank keyboard shift to default to numeric-only. The display length of the field is determined by the keyboard shift and not by edit code X. If the DATE or TIME keyword is specified with edit code X, the separator character is not displayed.

Note:
Asterisk fill and currency symbol are not valid for the edit codes X, Y, Z, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.
