Dear Doug, SIR <grin>
I believe the COMPRESS function will work, provided you pass the
appropriate hex codes to the second argument:
ie myvar = compress( myvar, '00'x );
ie:
data test;
x = 'myvar' || '00'x || 'test';
y = compress(x, '00'x );
run;
In version 9, I believe there will be a WHOLE SLEW of new character/numeric
functions that may help with this situation as well as a bunch of others.
HTH SIR!!!
