What is really scary is:
PRINT NUM(" 1")
PRINT NUM("1 ")
Both yield 1 (true).
This has resulted in MANY downstream data issues where input validation worked (using
the NUM function) yet further down the road, printing out order qtys using masking or
doing a locate statement of "1" in " 1" does not work.
This is in my opinion, a really BAD idea.
I had to rewrite several sections of a 4GL to accomodate these differences when
porting some code to universe recently.
I would hope in a future release this could be an option to return to better
compatibility and predictability.
