spaces between fields

Former Member — Wed, 05 Sep 2007 11:48:10 GMT

hello friends,

i have to concatenate the value of material classification which im gettin through a function module together in a variable and display it in the report

there r 6 fields which i have to concatenate in an particular manner only

like ab/c+de/f

now if say 'b' and 'e' are initial then the output should be like

a* /c+d* /f , that space which b and e r taking should be there only,

i cant use concatenate here since it wil remove the spaces

so wat exactly i should do 2 preserve that space

Hi Amit,

You can use contacatanate by using space by passing the variable by not the values.

You can use " SEPARATED BY SPACE", in the concatenate statement

this will add a single space after each of your variable.

Hi amit,

its simple just declare those two variable as type N(numeric text). If it does not contains any values, it holds only spaces. I have checked it is working....
