NUM() will validate '' (null string) as numeric, and I believe some implementations would validate '.' (decimal point) as numeric, although the version of Jbase I'm on, running Universe emulation, does not.

Hi,.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions and I have sorted out the issue. Now I
want to write some dollar values to a file. But the format in which it is
in the file is XXX.XX, but I need to write it as XXXXX. Without the
decimals the simple numbers.

Can some help me in doing so.

Thanks&   Regards,
Sathya V.
