RE: Convert packed data for HP3000 using 'C' instead of 'F' for posit ive numbers -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

I'm confused, an HP3000 (I assume Series III) will accept either the
'C' or the 'F' as a positive sign. If your app absolutely needs the
'C' the just insert an add zero to field in front of your test, this
should convert it to 'C'. As for doing it on the copy, I can't help
you.
