How about this micro improvement to one calculation, two definitions and no additional DS storage?
D rpltxtptr s * Inz( %Addr( rpltxt ) )
D rpltxtnum s 11S 2 Based( rpltxtptr )
/free
V3 = %Char( rpltxtnum );
/end-free
This might not work with negative numbers if they are not stored as zoned negative.

Subject: Re: Converting char to numeric for editing
This (not tested) should work just fine. Personally I'd wrap it up in
a subprocedure so that subsequent programmers don't have to try and
understand it - but I'd have done the same with your original code too.
d transform ds
d charNum11 11a
d num11 11s 2 Overlay(charNum11)
d v3 s 50a varying
d rplTxt s 80a
/Free
charNum11 = rplTxt;
V3 = %Char(num11);
