I like /free. BUT, there are a few things in /free that I've not been able to duplicate. One, for example, is like quite a few iSeries shops, we use numerics for dates and times. To get the current time into a 6 byte numeric field I just used the time opcode to the numeric field. How is this accomplished in /free?
If I use the %time BIF the compiler tells me that right and left hands aren't the same. I tried %DEC(%TIME()). That tells me that the value for the first parameter of %DEC is not valid. OK, I tried %DEC(%CHAR(%TIME()):6:0). This compiled but when I tried to run it, i got a RNQ0105 (a character representation of a numeric value is in error)
What's the key here?
