Returns a character-string representative of the absolute value of a number. Argument must be an integer or decimal value.
Example:
Assume that COLUMNX has the DECIMAL(6,2) data type, and that one of its values is -6.28.
DIGITS(COLUMNX)
Returns the value '000628'.
The result is a string of length six (the precision of the column) with leading zeros padding the string out to this length. Neither sign nor decimal point appear in the result.
