You do realize that trimming the leading zeros will change the way your
file names will appear in a sort. You'll get
File1
File10
File11
File12
...
...
File19
File2
File3
File4
File5
...
...
File9

Subject
Convert Character to Decimal in CL: Trimming leading zeros






"CHGVAR VAR(&DECVAL) VALUE(&CHARVAL)"

Now that this is clear, I do not want to complicate this more but I have a

similar issue with a little variant. I have file names which suffix is a
number from 1 to 350 and I need to trim the leading zeros and then do some

additional processing. For example:

BEFORE: &CHARVAL = 'FILE001 '
AFTER: &CHARVAL = 'FILE1 '

Again, I need to do this for files 1 to 350.

Thanks
