INT4 to String

Hello,

possible a simple question for the gurus of this forum. When i move the value of a INT4 declared variable into a string variable always a space is added at the end of the string.

Anybody can explain this behaviour?

DATA: int TYPE int4 VALUE 0,
      string TYPE string.

string = int.

The variable string contains now 3020 (hexadecimal). So why the space?

Regards,

Andy

conversion integer -> string: negative values have a "-" in last position, positive values a space.
