The is no standard edit-code which will do this. The problem with edit words is
that (AFAIK) they have
a restriction on the the way they work with regards to zero supression. In the
example below PVR can never show
as 05.00 but as 5.00.
The easy solution is to make the PVR field one digit longer at 5S  2 with an
EDTWRD('0  .  ')

 A            PVR            4S 2  45 86EDTWRD('0 .  ')

One alternative way is to create your own user-defined edit code (5 thru 8) .

You must also remember to copy this to all locations where you compile the
printer file tho'.
