FoldDP Function

In NLS mode, folds strings to create substrings using character display positions.

Syntax

FoldDP (string, length [ , mapname ] )

string is the string to be folded.

length is the length of the substrings in display positions.

mapname is the name of a character set map to use for the formatting. If mapname is not specified, the current default for the project or job is used.
