Nearly 10 years ago, MC-known then as Data Network-published an RPG II program written by Tim Neal. The program converted a numeric value to words, for check-printing purposes. Although a conversion routine like this could be written in many ways, we liked this one for its simplicity.
We often receive calls from AS/400 users requesting an RPG/400 program that will perform the same function. So, we decided it was time to modify the code and republish it. The program (CVT001RG) is shown in 2.
We often receive calls from AS/400 users requesting an RPG/400 program that will perform the same function. So, we decided it was time to modify the code and republish it. The program (CVT001RG) is shown in Figure 2.
It's a separate callable program that requires two parameters: an 8-digit, 2- decimal position, input parameter used to accept the numeric value to be converted; and an 80-character output parameter used to pass back the converted value.
We felt that the maximum value of 999,999.99 would be large enough for most shops. However, modifying it for a larger value should be easy for an RPG programmer since the logic is so simple.
