This document provides a listing of the COBOL source code for viewing. Additional information about this program may be obtained by sending an e-mail to: helpdesk@simotime.com
The objective of the right-adjust, zero-fill routine is to create a numeric field that will contain all digits with leading zeroes in the leftmost positions and be properly aligned to the units position. If the requirement is to right-justify, left-justify or center a text string within a field with the appropriate leading and/or trailing space characters then refer to the Text Justification document available on the SimoTime Web Site
We have made a significant effort to ensure the documents and software technologies are correct and accurate. We reserve the right to make changes without notice at any time. The function delivered in this version is based upon the enhancement requests from a specific group of users. The intent is to provide changes as the need arises and in a timeframe that is dependent upon the availability of resources.

The SimoRA12 routine (or callable program) will right-adjust the digits and zero-fill the left-most (or high-order) bytes with leading zeroes. For example, if a value of 123 is passed to the SimoRA12 routine the following will be returned in the pass area.
******************************************************************** RIGHTADJ 123 Right Adjusted Value......... 000000000123 RC=0000, Value is Numeric
The following will right-adjust the digits and zero-fill the left-most (or high-order) bytes with leading zeroes.
MOVE 'RIGHTADJ' to RA12-REQUEST MOVE '123 ' to RA12-BUFFER CALL 'SIMORA12' using RA12-PASS-AREA
In the preceding example the contents of RA12-PASS-AREA will be '000000000123' upon return from the call to SIMORA12.
For a detailed description of the pass area refer to the COBOL Copy File section of this document that defines the structure of the pass area.
The following member (SIMORA12.cbl) is the COBOL Source Code.

We appreciate hearing from you.
SimoTime Technologies was founded in 1987 and is a privately owned company. We specialize in the creation and deployment of business applications using new or existing technologies and services. We have a team of individuals that understand the broad range of technologies being used in today's environments. Our customers include small businesses using Internet technologies to corporations using very large mainframe systems.
Quite often, to reach larger markets or provide a higher level of service to existing customers it requires the newer Internet technologies to work in a complementary manner with existing corporate mainframe systems. We specialize in preparing applications and the associated data that are currently residing on a single platform to be distributed across a variety of platforms.
Preparing the application programs will require the transfer of source members that will be compiled and deployed on the target platform. The data will need to be transferred between the systems and may need to be converted and validated at various stages within the process. SimoTime has the technology, services and experience to assist in the application and data management tasks involved with doing business in a multi-system environment.
Whether you want to use the Internet to expand into new market segments or as a delivery vehicle for existing business functions simply give us a call or check the web site at http://www.simotime.com
