Re: Removing a dash from a phone number

eval $AlphaNumb = %substr(PHONE:1:3) + %substr(PHONE:5:4)
move   $AlphaNumb      $NumericNumb


---- original message ----
I have a little problem. I have a phone Number that is in a character
field. The number is 445-1234. I need to remove the '-'. So it reads
4451234. Can I use %SUBST to do this? If so how?
