Irrespective of language, there are the editing APIs. From an edit code or edit word which represents the manner in which to convert internal numeric representation into character string for presentation, a mask is created. The mask and the numeric data can then be passed to the Edit API to generate the character string. The generated mask can be stored, and then used repeatedly; i.e. the input to the edit word or edit code feature, does not need to be converted into a mask each time.

Input to EdtWrd [edit word] feature is a string. Input to EdtCde [edit code] is a single character. To review about how to specify the edit input, see that detail for /display files/ for example, at:
