hi,

something like:

CONCATENATE string(4) string+4(3) INTO .... SEPARATED BY '-'.

of course, this can vary, depending on the exact rule you need

hope this helps

hi,

use concatenate.

ex.


DATA: 
v_value(7) type c value '1000115',
v_temp(8) type c.

concatenate v_value(4) '-' v_value+4 int v_temp.

concatenate v_string0(4) '-' v_string4(3) into v_string1.

write 😕 v_string1.

hiii

you can do it by using offset values like follows

data:

string1 = w_final+4.

string2 = w_final+4(3).

CONCATENATE string1 string2 INTO string SEPARATED BY '-'.
