The field fmorno is number 12 coming from the screen dspf. wsno is alpha
10. The result is
000021924. I want to remove leading zeros. But the below is not compiling.
error:Msg id Sv Number Message text

RNF0374 20 1 The second parameter for %TRIMx is not valid.

Am I able to do this? I want to have ' 21924' not '0000021924'

c move fmorno wsno
c EVALR trimmed = %trim(wsno:0)
