1) Use %char if WSNO is a numeric field
2) Use the manuanls first in stead of asking basic questions like this

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)
