Re: PDQ: assignment to allocated space ending in MCH0601 error

Not part of the problem, but... it should be noted that passing a 32k

Noted. Easy to fix.

So, workBuffer is 32767 bytes long... it'll assign the 89 bytes from
inputLength, and then fill the remainder of the 32k with blanks -- not
good, since you haven't allocated the remainder of the field!

Hope that makes sense.

The solution is this:

%subst(workbuffer:1:inputLength) = %trim(input);

Ah! Gotcha! That makes perfect sense.

Thank you sir.
