Hi,

My requirement is to convert 15digit decimal nuumber into its equivalent hexadecimal no.

I am trying D2X function, but it is working only till the decimal no is in 9 digits.

For eg:
SAY D2X(19852881001,20) is giving the below error:

IRX0040I error running the DECTOHEX. Incorrect call to routine.

Is it possible to find hexadecimal equivalent of 15digit number? It is working when no is in 9 digits.

Thanks,
Ajay

As opposed to NON-NUMERIC digits (those that are less then 0 or greater than 9). icon_confused.gif

sorry for my cryptic reply, ( finger check )

what I meant was "numeric digits" will set the number of digits for REXX decimal arithmetic

Code:

say "d2x(123456789012345) ==>" || d2x(123456789012345) ||"<=="


will fail, but
Code:
numeric digits 15
say "d2x(123456789012345) ==>" || d2x(123456789012345) ||"<=="


will work

say d2x(123456789012345)


is working fine.

Thank you Enrico and Craq for your prompt replies.
