RE: Conversion Error Help

["Brian Piotrowski" <bpiotrowski@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

Thanks for the great responses.

I gave all of them a try, and I still get the conversion error.  Could
it be something with the way I'm defining the fields?

Thanks,

Brian.

Hi Brian,

Try FLDQTY = %DEC(%SUBST(FLD5:2) : 6 : 0) if you're on v5r2 or higher.

Hi All,

 

I'm having a bit of a problem with a data evaluation / conversion, and
I'm wondering if you veterans can help (Yes, I am still fairly new to
RPG)? 

 

In my code, I have this statement:

 

/FREE

  CHAIN KEYPB SSM05A11;                

  IF %FOUND(SSM05A11);                 

    FLDQTY = %SUBST(FLD5:2:%LEN(FLD5));          

    GTBOXQTY = (%INT(FLDQTY) > PNBQTY);

  ENDIF;                               

/END-FREE                              

 

KEYPB is a key that contains a part number

FLD5 is a 9A field

PNBQTY is a 6S field for box quantity
