Re: One function to Trim and Edit a number.

That'd work too but I often throw these into a log file as well.

And, to be honest, I've seen message files so overdone at my previous
employers, I grown an aversion to them.

I mean, I wrote a program to track their useage and found that
over 1/2 of them, and there were 1000+ of them, were used in only
1 or 2 places.

Since sending a message, why not stop using dynamic\impromptu
message [text], and just let the message handler feature replace the
string variable TRIMmed into a message string defined with a
specific message identifier? ADDMSGD MSGID(XYZABCD)
MSGFILE(MyMsgFile) MSG('Customer &1 not found.') VAR((*CHAR 14))
[cmd syntax is suspect\un-verified] and then send the
edited\character result as the replacement variable for send message
and retrieve message.
