COBOL help needed

Auburn · 2003-04-24 21:32:01

I am wondering if anyone can help me with a problem I have with UNSTRING. Basically, I want to separate out a string into four parts, but the string is delimited by slashes "/" , eg. /xxxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxx.html. It's difficult to do because of the first slash. I've tried replacing all but the beginning / with spaces…

I am wondering if anyone can help me with a problem I have with UNSTRING. Basically, I want to separate out a string into four parts, but the string is delimited by slashes "/" , eg. /xxxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxx.html. It's difficult to do because of the first slash. I've tried replacing all but the beginning / with spaces and then unstringing, delimited by spaces, but it's not working. Anyone know an easier way around this??
