What particular 'issues' are you having ? Is it just the wrong value
you are getting or is it a problem that you need to align the
numerics. Try FUNCTION NUMVAL USING csvfield.

I have written an export program that
creates a tab delimited file from an indexed file. I have also written
an import that would use the tab delimited file and update or create
an index field. I am having an issue with numeric fields. Does anyone
have any good examples of these.

What does the 'these' refer to: TAB delimited files or programs that
read them ?

I am using Acucobol in a Solaris
environment. Thank you

Thank you for indicating your environment, that saves having to do a
discourse on the problems of TABs with Microfocus.
