John,

eval field = x'0000' should work.

I think I found a bug in the debugger when using the VARYING dspec keyword.
I was in Debug and said,   EVAL  FIELDX = ' '  wanting to clear the field,
then I got a " Length of varying length variable is out of range."  see
below for message text.

How do you clear a VARYING field in debug (ie in a way that will reset the
2byte binary number back to zero) ??
