ROUTINE NUMC

Former Member — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:28:51 GMT

Is there any routines that initialize a numeric field with the value space?

Hello Francesco,

Initial value for a data of type NUMC is "0" for each position i.e., for NUMC2 it is "00" & for NUMC04 it will be "0000".

You cannot pass space as initial value. You have to change the data type or try some workaround.

It is possible use a default value for NUMC that indicates the null value?

Hello,

If you are using NUMC the initial value will always be 00... (based on the lenght) as i have mentioned earlier.

AFAIK using NUMC you cannot have SPACE or NULL as initial value.
