Title: Convert Alpha to Numeric

If you work with RPG ILE or RPG IV you can be search “atoi” and “atof” C-procedures.

They’ll be solving your problem good.

Oggetto: Convert Alpha to Numeric

 

Hello.  I may be asking a basic question but what is the best way to convert an alpha field into a numeric?  In my situation I have a 20-Alpha where the values are whole numbers.  I need to get that whole number into a 10.3 field.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks!
