Now, I don't know enough about what you're trying to do from the code, but
if you're trying to convert from a null-terminated string to a
varying-length character field, I'd suggest a VARYING field and the STR BIF.

curdirout = %STR(C_DIRECTORY);  // Make sure curdirout is VARYING

>From that point on, you can concatenate with and take the length of
curdirout directly without resorting to TRIM.
