Re: Floating $

"Does anybody know how to structure the edit word to print the following
dollar amount (9,2) this way: $502.34...

instead of this way....$    502.34????"

I tried this:

c                   move      *blanks       char_amount      10
c                   z-add     502.34        amount            7 2
c                   evalr     char_amount = '$' + %trim(%char(amount))
