Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to check the whether a particular character in a string has only alphabetic character.
My requirement is to scan through each and every character of the string to check whether the particular character is numeric or alphabhetic.
Code: |
IF (WS-STRING(i:1) ='N' and WS-ID(i:1) IS NUMERIC)
OR (WS-STRING(i:1) ='A' and <need to check whether the ID variable has value in the range 'A' to 'Z'> )
perform necessary logic
END-IF
|
To check whether the character is numeric , i can use a IS NUMERIC clause. Can anyone help me to get link to check for the alphabet?
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Meena S. |

Hello Meena,
To check an alphabetic character, we can use IS ALPHABETIC clause.
for ex:
IF (SEGMENT-NAME IS ALPHABETIC OR
SEGMENT-NAME IS NUMERIC)
Note: IS ALPHABETIC is to check only for alphabets.
