Here’s the code for Enhanced.ASP

The function neg_to_red takes a string and
returns a string with around all the
negative numbers. This function assumes the maximum length of a line
on the report is 132 and negative sign is trailing on negative
numbers ex 12.23- Feel free to use the function if you ever find a
need for it.

function neg_to_red(line)

pos = 2

last_end = 0

Do While pos

chr1 = Mid(Line, pos, 1)

chr2 = Mid(Line, (pos – 1), 1)

chr3 = Mid(Line, (pos + 1), 1)

If ((chr1 = “-“) And (chr3 = ” “) And (IsNumeric(chr2))) then

        pnt = pos – 1

       finished = 0

       Do While finished = 0

             
If ptr

                
finished = 1
