Hi,

I suggest you to take a look at the "PACK" and "UNPACK" statements, using the F1 help.

Did you try moving a char value ( Having valid currency e.g. 'GBP' ) into a field declared as of type currency?

Same is true if your question is about currency amount.

If you did check that then can you please let us know the exact problem that you are facing ?

If not , then can you please do that first

And as suggested in the above answer ...use PACK statement to convert char into currency amount.

Cheers,

Ram
