In my message set I have given ["Total"] attribute datatype as "Decimal". In the ESQL for the ["Total"] attribute i am sending the value which has been casted as character. since i am sending the integer numbers its not throwing any exceptions. But i would like to know is it the Best Practice to do?
Please give me suggestions. |

why casting as character ? if the field is defined as decimal, assign a decimal to it. |

| What is the message format you are using? Are you validating your message against the message set? |

Please explain why you need to use the REPLACE function. It is hard to give advice when we do not know what the requirement is.
