Initial Comment:
the following code fragment causes a "E* ERROR: FAILED 
PROCESSING TOF RECORD FOR SCRIPT LINE" error:

...
CHARACTER*4  	sub_vu_id, LOCAL
INTEGER		sub_int_vu_id, LOCAL
...
SET sub_vu_id = "1"
CONVERT sub_vu_id TO sub_int_vu_id

CONVERT sub_int_vu_id TO sub_vu_id, RIGHT JUSTIFY

Another problem: documentation states that:
"If the output buffer is too small to hold the output
string, it will be filled with asterisk (*) characters."
but this is clearly not the case.  This SCL:
  CHARACTER*2 TSTCHR
  INTEGER TSTINT
  ...
  SET TSTINT = 100
  CONVERT TSTINT TO TSTCHR
  LOG "Converted(no options): '", TSTCHR, "'"
Gives this log:
  1-1 :[XX]:LOG: Converted(no options): '10'

Asking to RIGHT JUSTIFY but with LEADING SPACES doesn't give
the error but seems to empty the string!
