Yes you would but that's a whole other thread. :) Bob -----Original Message----- From: rpg400-l-admin@midrange.com [mailto:rpg400-l-admin@midrange.com] On Behalf Of Rich Duzenbury Sent: Friday, November 08, 2002 4:56 PM To: rpg400-l@midrange.com Subject: Re: procedure/subroutine to quote a string with quotes At 03:51 PM 11/8/02, you wrote: >There's a (remote) possibility that the string could double in length. > >D EnQuote PI 4096A VARYING >D InString 2048A VALUE VARYING The function as presented uses only instring, a copy passed by value according to the above PI. Won't it simply truncate silently if there is too much data? Wouldn't you have to declare a variable to hold the changed characters, e.g. D OutString 4096A Value And then fill it?
