Performance!!!!!!!
You don't need to reinvent the wheel... you're right, but an FM call involves an extra delay. If this FM call is done within a large block of processing, you can be in trouble...

Ellie,
I have a different opinion. If I already have a standard FM, why should I write my own code to do the same.

Ravi,
Why do you need to design a cadilac when a chevy will do.
data: w_10(10) type n.
data: w_7(7) type c value '7777777'.
w_10 = w_7.
Just set up a data field to the size you want the output to be and make it type n. Then move the input to the data field. If for any reason you need a type C field you can move the type n to the type C and it will retain the leading zeros.
