RE: Testing for valid numeric in an alpha field

Dan,

Use end if to end the scope of the 2nd IF statement, then add your else.

Here's the code I am dealing with that explains this:

       IF VNGROUP = 'CORP' AND LFNCT-OT = 'E'
         IF WS-VNCOMPANY-1-4 = SPACES
           MOVE 0030             TO WS-VND-COMPANY
          ELSE
           MOVE WS-VNCOMPANY-1-4 TO WS-VND-COMPANY.


            End-If
         Else
             Do something else
        End-If



How would I do an ELSE on the first IF after this code snippet? Just remove the period and add
the ELSE condition, with a period at the end? If so, bleahhh.
