I have a SCO Unix system running Filepro 4.8.09D4.  I have a 12 digit 
field(field #1) with an edit called jobno that fills in - for the number.

jobno  \~( N N N N | A A)<"-">N N N N N<"-">N | jobno1 

jobno1 \~(<0>N N N | A A)<"-">N N N N N<"-">N | jobno2 

jobno2 \~(<0><0> N N | A A)<"-">N N N N N<"-">N

Sample job number: 0035-00141-5

I have another field(field #176) that is 3 digits with the edit rjfill0.

RJFILL0 \0\{N}

Sample number: 001

I have a third field(field #177) that is (15,*) and I take and join the 
fields together with the following syntax: 1&176.  The resulting number, 
in my mind should be something like: 0035-00141-5001.  When I view 1 on 
the screen it is correct as above.  When I view 176 on the screen it is 
correct as above.  When I view 177 on the screen it appears like this:

0035-00141-51

At the risk of being agreed with, Am I crazy?
