Using %editc()

Hi All:   I'm trying to use %editc() to add 1 to a 3 character field but
it is not working quite right. I just can't see what I am doing wrong.

 

The code is as follows:

            

                            HSISN3 = %editc((%int(HSISN3) + 1):'X');

 

HSISN3 is defined as 3 character. The initial value is '001'. I was
hoping after the calc that the value would be '002'. Instead I get
'000'.

 

The program is compiled as *ZONED. Can anyone help?   TIA
