Javier:
The RBEdit v. R> Prompt "issue" proved to be sloppy testing on my part
... I did not account for a [ SET VAR vq TEXT = NULL ] statement in my
"test rig".
Buddy:
I had simplified my example to focus on the cleanest case possible. The
actual code is:
SET VAR vFSPLeadTAG = +
('(IFNULL(T1.FSPLeadTAG,NULL, +
(' + .vq + '- ' + .vq + ' + T1.FSPLeadTAG + +
' + .vq + ' -' + .vq + ')))' )
My SNAFU last night and your responses today have set me down the path
to understanding.
I am in your debt.

When I set the variable as shown see the results. I’m assuming you
wanted the quotes around t1.Humpty…..
SET VAR vq = (CVAL(‘QUOTES’))
SET VAR vGreatFall TEXT = ('(' + .vq + 't1.Humpty' + .vq + ',' + .vq +
't2.Dumpty' + .vq + ')' )
sho var vgREATfALL
('t1.Humpty','t2.Dumpty')

Make sure to run this command to get the quotes into a variable…
SET VAR vq TEXT = (CVAL('Quotes'))
This is likely why the quotes do not show up.

If I run this code from within the editor:
SET VAR vq TEXT = (CVAL('Quotes'))
SET VAR vGreatFall TEXT = ('(t1.Humpty + ' + .vq + ', ' + .vq + ' +
t2.Dumpty)')
SHOW VAR vGreatFall
... I get the desired result at the R> output screen:
(t1.Humpty + ', ' + t2.Dumpty)
... If I run the SAME code from the R>, I get:
(t1.Humpty + , + t2.Dumpty)
... no quotes.
Is there a setting I'm missing?
