To be applied in the order listed for each segment.

ABSTRACT OF PROBLEM
___________________
INCORRECT VALUES FROM FSCANF OF FLOATING POINT NUMBERS.


COMMENTS ON PROBLEM
___________________
Due to APAR PJ27267, the scanf() function family produces incor-
rect  results  with floating point data.  APAR PJ27267 corrected
the problem with incorrect results when scanning packed  decimal
data.    However, now there is a problem with results when scan-
ning floating point data.  A zero value is returned for floating
point, regardless of the input value.   The  problem  occurs  in
Object-Code-Only module CGSCAN40.


SOLUTION
________
Modified    code in Object-Code-Only module CGSCAN40 so that the
scanf() function family reads floating point data correctly.
