Re: Scan Error.... Help..!

[booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

What about: 
        IF    NW_sascnt <> *Blanks 
   ' '  scan  NW_sascnt     n 
        If    n>1 
        Eval  nwcs_nm_f = %subst(NW_sascnt:1:n-1) 
        Eval  nwcs_nm_l = %subst(NW_sascnt:n+1)
        End


(I am wondering if NW_sascnt can ever have a value but have a blank in 
position 1 or position 2?)

        Subject:        Scan Error.... Help..!

This might sound a bit elementary, but I'm desperately
seeking help...  I have an triggered application that
continues to blow up with the following error:

Message . . . . :   Length or start position is out of
range for the string operation
Cause . . . . . :   One of the following has occurred
in RPG procedure TRG_APGM in program BLAHLIB/TRG_APGM
at statement 382: 
 -A numeric length or start position is less than 1 or
too large for the string operation. 
 -The search-argument parameter of the %SCAN built-in
function has zero length or is longer than the
source-string parameter. 
 -The maximum-length parameter of the %STR built-in
function is not a value 
  between 1 and 32767.

This is what my code looks like...
 if contact name /customer name is company name 
 
         IF    NW_sascnt <> *Blanks 
    ' '  scan  NW_sascnt     n 
         Eval  nwcs_nm_f = %subst(NW_sascnt:1:n-1) 
         Eval  nwcs_nm_l = %subst(NW_sascnt:n+1) 

Any help would greatly be appreciate.

Thanks
AB
