RE: Character to Numeric can it be cleaned up

["Bob cozzi" <cozzi@xxxxxxxxx>]

If you want to remove the leading blanks, wrap the %EDITC() with a %TRIML().

Thanks Marco

I'm starting to think it will only work at v5r2 :(

What about this? Can any one see any problems?

Just a quick test program.
Num1and Num2 at 15S 0  is twice the size needed for any numeric coming in 
and
CHAR at 70A is ok.

D CHAR            S             70 
D NUM2            S              15   0      INZ(20)
 
C 
C                   Evalr         CHAR  = '123456789' 
C                   MOVE       CHAR          NUM1              15 0 
C                   Evalr          CHAR  =  %editc((Num1 + Num2):'4') 
 
C                   MOVE       *ON           *INLR 

Result  '    whole bunch of blanks right adjusted  123456809' 

Thanks

This is working, but we are at V5R2:

d t               s              8    inz('12345678')
c                   eval      t=%char(%dec(t:%size(t):0)+1)
c     t             dsply 
c                   eval      *inlr=*on 
c                   return
