To left justify a numeric field in Ezytrieve

Postby luckyboyroh » Thu Aug 14, 2014 12:36 pm

Hi Friends,

I need to left justify a numeric field , after suppressing the data in ezt.

data field :
ws-amount (13 INTEGER BYTES . 2 DECIMAL BYTES)

i am confused as in how to declare the variable. Also as it is a numeric field , i need to suppress the Zeroes.
i believe numeric fields will be right justified. is there a way to right justify it? Will it get left justified if i move it to alphanumeric field?

please share your thoughts

First of all, read the manual to learn how to define your data areas.
Secondly,
Will it get left justified if i move it to alphanumeric field?

why not write a little thing to try it out?
Third, Do not ask me to expand as I would have to do what I have suggested you to do - and I cannot do that as I ma on holiday on a tropical island for the next few days.
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.
