Macros: Concatenation of alphanumeric character strings in variables

[Former Member]

Gurus,

I'm trying to concatenate two strings into a variable.

Example:

LAYOUTVARIABLE_SET( 'test1' ; 'abc' )

LAYOUTVARIABLE_SET( 'test2' ; LAYOUTVARIABLE( 'test1' ) + 'def' )

and test2 would then be 'abcdef'.

Obviously, the + sign is not a valid concatenation operator for strings, but I also cannot find a function that does that for me.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Uwe

Can you try using the command STRINGS_CONCATENATE() ?

I don't know why I didn't see this function in the help file. Pretty much what I'm looking for; however, is there something without spaces?

Thanks,

Uwe
