Coverting number into letter

Hedley

Hi,

i need to convert a field numeric value into a corresponding character letter, and i do that

case <alumpsll."2AS2O"> of
0:Memo125.Text:='';
1:Memo125.Text:='ONE;
2:Memo125.Text:='TWO';
3:Memo125.Text:='THREE';
else
Memo125.Text:='?'
end;

but i need to do the same for about 100 fields, i think that i would do faster if i do using an array

example..

define a array char(3) and asing values

char(1)='ONE'
char(2)='TWO'
char(3)='THREE'

then asign Memo125.text:=char(<alumpsll."2AS2O"> )

but i dont know how to do it inside the report.... it is posible to do ?

thanks a lot

I prefer to add custom functions as a library of functions then they are available to all reports.
see the developers manual on how to create custom functions.
