Hi,

Use SEPARATED BY SPACE addition with CONCATENATE statement.

Hi,

If you want to concatenate just a space to a data object (variable), you have to use string literals ` ` (enclosed in back quotes) instead of text literals ' ' (enclosed in normal quotes). This can be done as follows:


data my_var type string value 'Some string'.

concatenate my_var ` ` into my_var.  "not ' '

In contrast to text literals, string literas don't suppress space at the end.
