Zoltán ,

Thanks, I over looked the double quotes is my testing because  wrong 
field format also produce "blanks"


For others:
when get "blank_output" then there is a error in the formula or wrong 
field format

when get "0_output" then formula is OK but certenly wrong field format.

Thanks for the solution and all the work you spended on this usefull Tool

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...')
