<div><p>These characters have special meanings when used in the body of

an edit word.</p>
|

<div class="section"> <dl><dt class="dlterm">Blank</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>A blank is replaced with the character from the corresponding position
|
||
|
|
of the data field. A blank position is referred to as a digit position.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Ampersand</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>An ampersand causes a blank in the edited field. The ampersand is not
|
||
|
|
printed.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Zero</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>To stop zero suppression, place a zero in the farthest-right
|
||
|
|
position where it is to stop. The zero is then replaced with the character
|
||
|
|
from the corresponding position of the data field, unless that character is
|
||
|
|
a zero. Any zeros in the data that appear to the right of the stop-zero-suppression
|
||
|
|
character are printed. The stop-zero-suppression character is considered a
|
||
|
|
digit position; however, when it is the first character, it can not
|
||
|
|
represent the digit position. At least one leading zero is suppressed. Each
|
||
|
|
zero that is suppressed is replaced by a blank.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Asterisk</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>Placing an asterisk in the farthest-right position where
|
||
|
|
zero suppression is to stop, stops zero suppression and replaces the zeros
|
||
|
|
with asterisks (asterisk protection). An asterisk preceding a zero is interpreted
|
||
|
|
as representing asterisk protection. In this case, the zero prints as a constant.
|
||
|
|
Any asterisks or zeros to the right of the stop-zero-suppression character
|
||
|
|
are constants.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Currency symbol</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd> <p>A currency symbol coded immediately to the left of the zero suppression
|
||
|
|
code causes the insertion of a currency symbol in the position to the left
|
||
|
|
of the first significant digit. It is called the <em>floating-currency symbol</em> when
|
||
|
|
used in this manner.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>A currency symbol coded in the
|
||
|
|
farthest-left column of the edit word is fixed and prints in the same location
|
||
|
|
each time. When used in this manner, it is called the <em>fixed-currency symbol</em>.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The
|
||
|
|
currency symbol is not considered a digit-replace position. This symbol must
|
||
|
|
correspond to the system value QCURSYM.</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Decimals and commas</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd> <p>Decimals and commas are printed in the same relative positions in
|
||
|
|
which they are coded in the edit word unless they are to the left of the first
|
||
|
|
significant digit. In that case, they are blanked out or replaced by an asterisk.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>All
|
||
|
|
other characters are printed if they are to the right of significant digits
|
||
|
|
in the data field. If they are to the left of the high-order significant digits
|
||
|
|
in the data, they are blanked out or replaced by asterisks if asterisk protection
|
||
|
|
is being used.</p>
