I personally would do one eval, you do not need the DS


d  neweditedssnumber...
d                       s        13
c          eval    NEWEDITEDSSNUMBER =
c                       %trimR(%editw(SS:'   -   -    '))


Unless of course you are not current enough on your OS to use these BIFS


The trim really is not needed in this circumstance, but it is a habit of
mine.

Otherwise do a substring instead of a mova


Not to mention, you should be moving to position 7, not 8 - to end up with
123-45-6789

Subject: Please help with arrays


I am trying to use a program that was writen by someone. I would like to
insert "-". E.g 111111111 would like to see 111-111-111. I run the prgram
but I get 111-111111. Can you please take a look at the code and let me
know
what I am missing. Thanks in advance.

  * Use this array to insert the '-' in the  id field.
  *
D SS              S              1    DIM(11)

              D                 DS
D  SSNO                   1     11
D  S1                     1      3
D  S3                     4      5
D  S5                     6      9

c    MOVEA     S1            SS(1)
c    MOVEA     S3            SS(5)
c    MOVEA     S5            SS(8)

C     MOVEA     '-'           SS(4)
C     MOVEA     '-'           SS(8)
