RE: centering text on a field

   Here's a simple one that will work as an ILE, in-line, no-frills.  In this
   case OBETXT  is 30 long and will go from "un-centered" to "centered" in
   three five easy lines.  Good luck.

   d TxtLen         S              3  0  
   d Blnks           S             30     

    *  Center the text                                                    
   c                   Eval      TxtLen = %len(%trim(OBETXT))             
   c                   Eval      TxtLen = ((30 - TxtLen) / 2) +
   1               
   c                   Eval      OBETXT = %subst(Blnks:1:TxtLen) + OBETXT
