Just working on another function server and was getting tired of typing Z's for a field I would never use for this function server. I have to set the field for the session - in this case I am working on inbound. So instead of doing:

stpapi.put.field("tdilc4202m000","gcid.t","ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ")

I was wondering if there was a better way to do this. I know I can set a variable to the max using this:

set.fmax(maxgcid,"tppdm.gcid.a")

Is there anyway to do it in the stpapi.put?

If u know the length of the variable then u can use string.set$. One has to know the field lenght to use this.
