Re: How to insert a character in a string in RPGLE

Check out the %SUBST BIF.  Your scan operations tell you where in the string
you want to do things.  The %SUBST (or the SUBST op-code) will enable you to
break the string apart into logical pieces.  Then you can construct a new
string from the pieces of the original string and your modifications
embedded where you like.  There are very good examples of this in the RPG
reference manual.  DaveK
