Purpose
Function to perform picture formatting
Syntax
TRANSFORM(<exp>, <expC>)
See Also
Description
The TRANSFORM() function allows formatting of <exp> using a picture string <expC> in a similar way to the @...GET command. TRANSFORM() returns a character string formatted as requested. TRANSFORM() is particularly useful for redefining field widths when formatting reports or forms.
From version 9.3.3 onwards, the TRANSFORM() function can be used to return a numeric as a hexadecimal.
Example
total = 3001.23 ? transform(total, "$$$$$9.99") $3001.23 ? transform((0x1a * 2),"@0") 0x00000034
