I'm trying to use the %scan bif and it doesn't seem to be working. I must
really misunderstand how it works or something....
short example....
D Criteria...
D 30a //parameter for my
procedure.
D name1...
D s 30a
D pos...
D s 10i 0
/free
....some sql code to populate name1.
pos = %scan(Criteria : name1);
....some more code later on
/free
I'm using a SEP to debug this. When the %scan is performed the value of
pos is being returned as 0. Criteria = HOSPITAL, name1 = '**MY EXAMPLE
HOSPITAL'
Why is pos = 0? HOSPITAL is CLEARLY in there... shouldn't it return the
position on the H? Which in the real data for my first record I would
expect to be position 19. In this example I would expect it to return
position 14.
Am I missing something?
Thanks
