Re: Right-justify field in RPG

or how about . . .

DFIELDA                     S                10A  INZ('12345     ')
DRightJustField        S                10A  '

 If the field lengths are the same . . .
                                                 EVALR
RightJustField = FIELDA
If the field lengths differ (obviously not more than RightJustField). . .
                                                 EVALR
RightJustField = %Trim(FIELDA)

John.
