Re: Converting char to numeric for editing

But it will give you an overflow error with rpltxt = '1000000012566'. You should use w11n2 = (%dec(rpltxt:11:0)/100).

This definitely works

d rpltxt s 80a
d v3 s 50a varying
d w11n2 s 11 2

/free

rpltxt = '0000000012566';

w11n2 = (%dec(rpltxt:11:2)/100);

v3 = %trim(%editc(w11n2:'3'));
