I need to replace the input variable according to a desired format. For example acct has values incoming as '1204' and want it to like 1204. One more case, if the input is multiple , like '1204' OR '1205' OR '1206' then need the desired output as 1204,105,1206

Thanks in advance for the help.

Regards,
Sourabh

If this is form HTML Composer, read this. If not search STRREP.

We can remove those quotes using CTRAN. Here is something that I use when passing multiple values into SQLPASS THRU

-PROMPT &CAR.(OR(FIND CAR IN CAR)).Car.;
-SET &CAR = STRREP(&CAR.LENGTH,&CAR,4,' OR ',1,',',&CAR.LENGTH,'A&CAR.LENGTH') ;
-SET &CAR = TRUNCATE(&CAR) ;
-TYPE &CAR;
-SET &CARIN = '(' |&CAR |')' ;
-SET &CARIN = TRUNCATE(&CARIN);
-TYPE &CARIN;
-SET &CAR_NC = TRUNCATE(&CAR);
-TYPE &CAR_NC ;
-SET &CARNC = CTRAN (&CAR_NC.LENGTH,&CAR_NC,39,32,'A&CAR_NC.LENGTH');
-TYPE &CARNC ;
-SET &CARNC = STRIP(&CARNC.LENGTH,&CARNC,' ','A&CARNC.LENGTH') ;
-SET &CARNC = TRUNCATE(&CARNC);
-TYPE &CARNC;
-SET &SQLCAR = IF '&CARNC.EVAL' EQ 'ALL' OR '&CARNC.EVAL' EQ 'FOC_NONE' OR '&CARNC.EVAL' EQ '_FOC_NULL' OR '&CARNC.EVAL' EQ ' ' THEN ' ' ELSE 'AND CAR IN ' | &CARIN ;
-TYPE SQLCAR : &SQLCAR ;

-SET &VAR_IN = '''1204''' | ' OR ' | '''1205''' | ' OR ' | '''1206''' ;
-*
-* Get rid of single quotes
-SET &VAR_OUT1 = STRIP(&VAR_IN.LENGTH , &VAR_IN, '''', 'A50') ;
-* Replace ' OR ' with ','
-SET &VAR_OUT2 = STRREP(&VAR_OUT1.LENGTH,&VAR_OUT1,4,' OR ',1,',',50,'A50');
