| Code: |
OPTION COPY
INREC FINDREP=(IN=C'","',OUT=C'') |

Not sure what you mean. Please elaborate.
You can remove the commas with an editor macro. For example, change any character to '' in column 4. And find all of the columns where a comma might be. |

Hi,
do you mean removing the records that have a comma or replacing the comma with a space.
In your output file this record has disappeared
| Code: |
| 5,000.00000000L SG 5,000.00000000L |

Using the CHANGE command almost works:
The problem is that the changed numbers are shifted to the left:
| Code: |
456253.0000-
6210.0000-
7500.0000-
0.68540000L
1500.00000000L SG 1500.00000000L
500.00000000L SG 500.00000000L
500.00000000L SG 500.00000000L
300.00000000L SG 300.00000000L
200.00000000L SG 200.00000000L
350.00000000L SG 350.00000000L
600.00000000L SG 600.00000000L
12500.00000000L SG 12500.00000000L
5000.00000000L SG 5000.00000000L |
Is this satisfactory? |

| Yup, I know this C all command but it shifts one letter to left. That's the prob. Is there any other way without that? |

(supposed to be a NOT sign)
Will get rid of the comma but shift all lines.
Follow with a shift right command.
Repeat with second column (find the column where the comma is), but your shift has to be more tricky. |

Hello,
Why is this a problem (to "remove" the comma, shifting must occur or there would be an embedded blank)? Seems that the problem is the "not shifting" shifting the "other" records that do not have a comma. . . .
Why does the comma need to be removed and the decimal remains?
If you explain what is needed as well as what has been tried to solve it, we may be able to provide more useful replies  |
