Field CM

Compress status of a form field. Indicates how the data mask associated with the form field is to be treated.

A 1-character code, as shown in the table below:

Y	The data mask literals are not included in the value of the form field
N	The data mask literals form part of the value of the form field

Form fields with data types (DT) of numeric and date force a compress status of Y.
