Re: it did the job

Vern,

our systems have many different CCSID's: Belgium (where our development is
done), Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, ... and
the behaviour is the same everywhere I checked.

Just to be sure, I'll give it a try on one of our systems that happens to
have a German (273) CCSID...

Nope, same here in interactive SQL.

This also occurs in SQLRPGLE, for that matter

Strange.....

Hi, Peter

This is strange to me. I've _never_ had to put spaces after commas. Either
version of the substr you describe has worked. AFAIK, SQL doesn't care
about spaces - you put in as many as you want, or none at all, and it's OK.
I'm going to try a few things again, to verify this.

Could there be any differences with system language - US as against
Deutschland, etc.?

OTOH, who can argue with success?

Regards

Vern
