Hello again.

At the end of a process of booking a hotel need to send a mail to the end customer with the booking confirmation.
I have a pre-defined text (but can be changed) with the following format:
Booking nº @numres
Check-in: @datent
Check-out: @datsai

Is there any way I can replace the variables for their content?
The objective is the text look like this:
Booking nº 2748
Check-in: 05/20/2016
Check out: 05/25/2016

I have tried in various ways using the STRING comand and UNSTRING with the INSPECT but still could not reach the final format

Thanks

Best Regards

Something like this:

      01 mytext    string  value "This is booking: @numres for checkin on @dateent and checkout on @datsai".
      01 resnum    pic 9(4) value 2748.
      01 checkin   pic x(10) value "05/20/2016".
      01 checkout  pic x(10) value "05/25/2016".
      procedure division.
          set mytext to mytext::Replace("@numres", resnum::ToString)::Replace("@dateent", checkin)::Replace("@datsai", checkout)
          display mytext

Another approach is to use the String::Format method with replacement variable numbers instead.

working-storage section.

01 mytext    string  value"This is booking: {0} checkin on {1} and checkout on {2}".

01 resnum    pic 9(4) value 2748.

01 checkin   pic x(10) value "05/20/2016".

01 checkout  pic x(10) value "05/25/2016".

procedure division.

     set mytext to type String::Format(mytext, resnum, checkin, checkout)

     display mytext
