Re: Count String

If you are using RPGIV
then

if you want the length of the field
%len(string)

if you want the length of the data IN the field

%len(%trim(string))

Hi All,

How to count length of a given string, is there any function or
opcode for doing this.

Example : string = 'COMPUTER'
Total string length is 8

Thanks in Advance
