Hi Fernand,

Maybe a stupid question or i looked just over it
: but why is a very usefull text Function as CONCAT or CONCATENATE
not available in the Sun Report Builder ?
I don't remember exactly but shouldn't it be possible to just write
'column1' + ' ' + 'column2'
- oj
I know, there are Queries to do things like that (supposes we build
for every Report a new Query...), but Concatenate a part of field
with some 'text' or other parts is more handy than some other
available text Functions.as URLENCODE etc...
Joining the field parts as separate controls is al so a work
around but by making URL's for pictures we need to do something
like
concat('///myserver/mydirectory ; LEFT(TEXT[urlFIELD]);10); 'etc...')
Hope it helps to improve SRB and thanks for all the exellent work done
to make this tool available!
Fernand
