Hi,
How can I format PIC '999V.99' to left align it in pl/1 ?
for ex: "bbbbb123.45" (b=blank). I want it without blanks & it should be left-aligned.
Please give me the solution.
Ashok. |

| Redefine your variable on a char and use LEFT function on char variable. |

DCL LFTCHR CHAR(11);
DCL LFTALN PIC 'ZZZZZ999V.99' BASED(ADDR(LFTCHR));
LFTALN=123.45;
LFTCHR=TRIM(LFTCHR,' ');
PUT SKIP LIST('LFTCHR : ',LFTCHR);
Hope this helps |

Hello Sir,
I compiled below PL/1 program(of LeftAlign) but I'm getting below error:
ERROR 1 SEVERITY 3 on or near line 3 of file "test.wrk"
The source text contains extraneous data. Check for excess
END statements, unbalanced quotes, and unbalanced /* */.===========================================
