Dave,

I don't know REXX, and it's only like 6 lines of very simple code. Tookme less than 5 minutes to write. I'm sure REXX is great, and if you'reever interested in writing articles about REXX programming to help itreach more people, let me know and I'll set you up.


I just couldn't see doing it for something this simple.

Why do you just use this command in REXX:

REVERSE ('ABc.')  *>> '.cBA'
or
REVERSE('XYZ  ') *>> 'ZYX'

REXX is MUCH more powerful and simpler than CL for this sort of thing.
