RE: Decimal Place in Character String

IMHO the only way to handle the size and number of decimal positions
dynamically is to use dynamic embedded SQL.

Something like this:

String = 'Values(VarChar(Dec(' concat Packed_Data concat '/'
concat
D_shift concat
', 31, ' concat Use_Scale concat '))
)
into ?';
PrePare DynSQL From :String;
Execute DynSQL Using :YourRtnVar;
Return YourRtnVar;


Yes, that would definitely be a workable idea if I were willing to
convert from RPGLE to SQPRPGLE for this process. Thanks.
