Hi, Try this way.

WRITE num to num no-ZERO.
WRITE num.

Hi,

Either use CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT or


data: var(10) type c.

var = '0053549980'.

shift var left deleting leading zeros.

write: var.

Hi Joy,

Try using the PACK keyword to remove the leading zeros.

PACK <var1> TO <var2>.
CONDENSE <var2>.

Here var1 and var2 both are Character Type variables.

Hope it helps.
