Library /sys$common/syshlp/basichelp.hlb CVTx$  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

  The CVTx$ functions  translate  numeric  values  into  character  strings.
  CVT%$  translates  a  16-bit integer into a 2-character string.  The CVTF$
  function translates a floating-point number into a 4- or 8-byte  character
  string,  depending  on  whether  the floating-point variable is single- or
  double-precision.

  Examples

  A$ = CVT%$(A%)
  EMP_NAME$ = CVTF$(A)
