SQL is a great idea - the SET statement gives the OP all kinds of possibilities, including trimming and conversion functions like DIGITS and REPLACE - as you know!

But maybe those who are reluctant to go to RPG IV would be just as leary of SQL - we shall see. I hope they are at a fairly new release of the OS.

API ?! Is there something I'm missing ? Why didn't anyone suggest SQL? Presuming you have that possibility.

Objet : Numeric to character conversion in RPGIII

Hello,
Is there a way to suppress leading zeros while moving a numeric field to an alpha field in RPGIII (both fields have same length).
Unfortunately my shop uses RPGIII and is loathe to convert to RPG1V.
Please help

Thanks,
Prakash
