RE: truncating a decimal value in /Free (Hijacked)

I would call it Indicator_4578, otherwise someone might work out what it
is you're doing.

Buzz,
Try this:

D Indicator_DS DS Based(Indicator_Ptr)
D Indicator_3032 3A overlay(indicator_ds : 30)

D Indicator_Ptr * Inz(%Addr(*In)

/Free
Indicator_3032 = '010';

...

Use your own name for the indicator field.

Luis, while syntactically valid, that code would not set on any
indicators. You'd need to base that IndArray on the actual indicator
array's address.

This alternative would work:

%subarr( *IN: 30: 3) = *on;

This is the sort of thing I was looking for. Just couldn't imagine how

to

map the program indicators to the BIF. Appreciate the discussion from

you,

Luis, et. al.

However, in the code I'm dealing with, it needs to be function in this
manner:

%subarr(*in:30:3) = '010';

Which the compiler -still- does not like (I apologize for the previous
overly-simplistic example). Unfortunately, when trying to navigate to

Jon's

article, Chrome crashes with a Reader Subscription error!!!

BTW, let's say that such use of indicator(s) processing is mainly to -

keep

the peace!
