Hi Ricardo,

 ResidenceZipcodes is a new variable here, and is therefore assumed to be numeric.

Unless it was your intention re-assign to ResidenceZipCode, you need to declare the variable as a string:

STRING ResidenceZipcodes (A5).

Using a Substr string function on a string variable (see the screen shots below) I get an error message saying: "the expression has string type, but a numeric value is required here."Did I do something wrong or is this a bug?
