Re: Invert decimal separator for numeric data

If this is a numeric field, the comma/dot is not stored inside the data of the field, anyway, so this is a non-issue.

If this is a character field, you can simply do this:

   field = %scanrpl(',':'':field);

   field = %scanrpl('.':',':field);

The first %scanrpl removes the commas that US (and others) use as thousands separators.  The second one translates the dots into commas.

Hi all

I'm developing an RPGLE application for Zebra PDA TC26; as Zebra numeric
keyboard , have decimal point (in the view together to number) , i would
like to let the user , enter number with dot to separate decimal values also
if normally we use comma to indicate the decimals in a number.

For example : in the DSPF , user enter 1234.56 that from DB is 1234,56 (4
integers and two decimals) ;

how could i solve this matter ? i asked to Zebra assistance for change dot
to comma in the numeric keyboard, but they told me that the only way i sto
configure another keyborad and is not too easy ..

any other had e similar problem?

Thanks in advance
