Nick,

you should look at atoi(); here's some pseudo-code:

? ? ?h dftactgrp(*no) actgrp(*new)
? ? ?h debug(*yes) alwnull(*inputonly)
? ? ?h bnddir('QC2LE')
? ? ? *
? ? ? *--------------------------------------
? ? ? * Prototype for procedure: AtoI
? ? ? *--------------------------------------
? ? ?d AtoI ? ? ? ? ? ?PR ? ? ? ? ? ?10i 0 ExtProc('atoi')
Alpha to Integer
? ? ?d ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? * ? value options(*string)
? ? ? * Mainline program
? ? ? *
? ? ? ? /FREE
? ? ? ? NumberField = atoi(AlphaField);
? ? ? ?/END-FREE

                                                     I am trying to move a
                                                     2 position alpha field
                                                     into a 2 position
                                                     numeric field.

                                                     // free
                                                     ...
                                                     ?Numberfield =
                                                     alphafield;
                                                     ...

                                                     // end-free

                                                     When I try to compile
                                                     this, I get an RNF7416
                                                     (the types of the
                                                     right and left hand
                                                     side do no match in
                                                     the EVAL operation.

                                                     Any suggestions how to
                                                     accomplish this.

                                                     Nick
