Both the method and examples are in the documentation which you access by clicking the help button
in developers studio.

Alternativly search for the word length in the forum using the search tab you will find 789 items to
look at where you will almost certainly find what you need

Do you mean that you want to apply an EDIT to those fields that are greater than 10 characters in length? If so then just apply an EDIT mask of 10 chars or use SUBSTR.

En español

¿Quiere decir que desea aplicar un EDIT a los campos que son más de 10 caracteres de longitud? Si es así entonces solo se aplica una máscara de EDIT, de 10 caracteres o el uso SUBSTR.

Please update your signature.

Firstly, you are trying to use field values (CAMPO) with dialogue manager which is not correct.

Secondly, LENGTH is maintain syntax and NOT reporting. ARGLEN is the reporting alternative(ish).

Thirdly you could use the result of CAMPO in a SUBSTR function

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT MODEL
      COMPUTE MODEL_LEN/I10 = ARGLEN(24, MODEL, 'I10');
	  COMPUTE NEW_MODEL/A24 = SUBSTR(24, MODEL, 1, MODEL_LEN, MODEL_LEN, NEW_MODEL);
   BY MODEL
IF RECORDLIMIT EQ 10
END

This is all quite basic coding - have you had any traning?

EXPERTOMAD - I will try to translate what Tony said in Spanish, lastly try to get some training.
Lo primero que necesita es una cuestión cuadro de mando contra el auto de archivo (como ejemplo).
la sintaxis de archivo de la tabla de coche
a continuación, imprimir el modelo y calcular su longitud utilizando la sintaxis de la ARGLEN y SUBSTR usuario por escrito subrutinas:
COMPUTE MODEL_LEN/I10 = ARGLEN(24, MODEL, 'I10');
COMPUTE NEW_MODEL/A24 = SUBSTR(24, MODEL, 1, MODEL_LEN, MODEL_LEN, NEW_MODEL);
ordenada por el verbo objeto. en este ejemplo es: modelo
seguido por fin en una línea por sí mismo
por último, tratar de obtener algún tipo de formación

Tener un buen día
