Look at the %editc and %editw built in functions.  Both return a character
string and take a numeric and an edit code or edit word as parameters.  Just
like O specs. <g>

Sounds like the interface is a bit on the inflexible side.

Subject: mapping a field


For a data warehousing project, we need to map a P(7,2) dollar field to 10A
field, which they are calling a currency format type.
Right adjusted, no commas, if minus sign, needs to be front, ie.
-999999.99.  If the value is 0, supply 0.00.
Does anyone know of an algorithm or a procedure to peform this?
By the way, I'm not an SQL person.  Is the currency data type an SQL thing?
Thanks for any help.
