I meant something like: let's say you want to change the "count of the
fractional part" (I quote from your platdata). It (the FRACTION_Z
field, I assume) has a default value of (say) 2. Say you want to change
the count to 1. The above write will change it to 3 instead. If this
is really the behaviour you need, it should be OK then.
