Hey why don't use just a MOVE operation instead of that %int operation.
I guess that should work fine by all means. See the modification I did
to your code in BLOCK letters.


     d sctax#          s              2  0
     d pay_type_test   s              3
     d paytyp          s              2

     ?* is the transaction type code numeric?
     c                   testn                  PAYTYP          99
     c                   if        *in99
     c                   MOVE      PAYTYP               SCTAX# 
     c                   else
     c                   eval      msgdata = 'Invalid Transaction Type

PS: I'm not sure why you are using a third variable PAY_TYPE_TEST.

RE: TESTN






The value could be any of the following, right?

 '__9'
 '_99'
 '999'
 '9__'
 '99_'
 '9_9'
 '_9_'

And then all the negative values, just as J through whatever.

If you truly want digits only in the field and to compress out blanks,
use
the %DIGITS() built-in function.  Oh wait, we don't have that do we...
Okay do this:

D DIGITS          C              Const('0123456789'
D szValue         S           5A  VARYING

C       eval  szValue = %Trim(pay_type_test)
C       if    %Check(DIGITS:szValue) = 0
C       eval   sctax = %Int(szValue)

Ok,
Obviously I have something wrong going on here.  Any ideas?
     d sctax#          s              2  0
     d pay_type_test   s              3
     d paytyp          s              2

     ?* is the transaction type code numeric?
     c                   evalr     pay_type_test = paytyp
     c                   testn                   pay_type_test
99
     c                   if        *in99
     c                   eval      sctax# = %int(paytyp)
     c                   else
     c                   eval      msgdata = 'Invalid Transaction Type
Code'
This is supposed to be working, but a user got the RNX0105 error stating

that the
eval sctax# = %int(paytyp)
a character representation of a numeric value is in error.

But I'm doing a testn first, is this wrong?  I've tried testing and
can't
get it to blow up, but the joblog says the user's did.
