DEFINE  BO_ZIP_CD    /  Display style(column)={tagattr="format:@" cellwidth=80pt just=center"BILLING ZIP";

The above code is being used in a program using ods tagset.  The output is an xml file.  If the zip code is something like 30011 then I am fine.  If the zip code is 300112222 I want to format the zipcode as 30111-2222.

If it is easier to address this in the dataset then let me know.  I believe there is a way to address in the ods output though.

Hi:

  I believe you will need to use CALL DEFINE in a COMPUTE block to specify a different format when you have a zip+4 versus just a zip code (based on the length of the data value).
