I'll answer the second part.  If you are using the 400, you do have REXX.
It's built into the OS.  Give it a try ---- STRREXPRC.

===========================

If I have this field value "RABBIT PACK, 6PC. WINE TOOL KIT", is there a
better method of removing the comma and period characters and discarding
the extra spaces created without using an array routine of reading one byte
at a time, translating the unwanted characters to "blanks" and then
reloading the field via array positions?

Can I use the %xlate and %trim %bifs to shorten this task?  I don't have
REXX, so that is not an option.
