Subject: Moving a field and removing blanks
An easy one that I can't seem to wrap my head around:
I have a 30 character field where the data is left justified. I want to
move it into a 50 character field but want to move it to the far rightlist
omitting any trailing blanks.
So something like this:
MYbDATAbHEREbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
moved so it is like this:
EXISTINGbDATAbHEREbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbMYbDATAbHERE
I have been moving between too many languages lately...this seem simple
but I can't seem to come up with a simple solution. I *want* to %TRIMR
and MOVE at the same time but know that I can't....(can I?)
