I have a report with a time field as
USAGE=P13.4, ACTUAL=P7, in the master file description.

When I create a report with that field, it displays as: 142100.0000

Any ideas on how to convert this field to diaplay in report as HH:MM:SS?

Thanks,
Tomsweb Winky

SET CDN=OFF

APP APPENDPATH IBISAMP

EX -lines 4 EDAPUT MASTER,FPTEST,CV,FILE,
FILENAME=FPTEST, SUFFIX=FIX, $
  SEGMENT=FPTEST, $
    FIELDNAME=TIMEFLD, USAGE=P13.4, ACTUAL=A13, $

EX -lines 3 EDAPUT FOCTEMP,FPTEST,CV,FILE,
142100.0000
151309.3674

-RUN
FILEDEF FPTEST DISK fptest.ftm (LRECL 15 RECFM V

DEFINE FILE FPTEST
TFLD/A8=EDIT(FTOA(TIMEFLD, '(D6)', 'A7'),'99:9$9:99');
END

TABLE FILE FPTEST
PRINT * TFLD
END
Hope this helps....

Try this
Haven't tried myself
but the first field converts F to A and takes only first 6 chars, gets rid of decimal points.
NEWTIME/A6=FTOA(YOUR_TIMEFIELD, '(P13.4)', NEWTIME);
FMTTIME/A8 = EDIT(NEWTIME,'99:99:99');

To convert a PACKED field to alpha, PTOA will work better.
