IGZCINS

IGZCINS processes the INSPECT verb. INSPECT converts or replaces characters in a string. It is usually used for data input validation or text processing.

Hints

According to IBM, using an INSPECT verb in conjunction with a reserved word, such as SPACES or LOW-VALUES, causes an exit from the user application program. Changing the word SPACES to ' ' (an actual space) eliminates the CPU time used by IGZCINS.
