|For your project, you would want to do something like this:
|
|then: export expfile=(filename) ...
|then: expfile(1) = 1
|then: expfile(2) = 2
|   if: ' In this example, field 3 contains the tax ID number.
|then: ' Strip out any - symbols with xlate, then convert to base 36.
|then: expfile(3) = base(xlate(3,"-",""),"10","36")
|then: expfile(4) = 4
|
|
|For the import, just change the value back....
|
|then: import ifile=(filename) ....
|then: 1 = ifile(1)
|then: 2 = ifile(2)
|then: 3 = base(ifile(3),"36","10")
|
|Few things in this world are this easy.
